He graduated in 2023 with a Master’s in Visual Anthropology from the University of Amsterdam, where he made an ethnographic film exploring the relationship between Georgia, Europe and Russia. With a background in journalism, Jim’s practice evolved from news reporting into documentary filmmaking while working for NH Nieuws, AT5 and Brandpunt+.
