Nikolai Galitzine

I am a UK and Iceland based filmmaker with a passion for documentaries and visual stories.

I have just completed my first feature documentary EYRÍKI (Island Nation) as director/camera/editor, which I shot on a remote island in the Greenland Sea. It is off to festivals this year!

I started HLC in 2022 to serve as a hub for my filmmaking friends and me to make documentaries and drama.

Community and collaboration are important to me. I love to help people get their visions on screen. I love cinema as a viewer, and as a maker.

From developing a minority co-pro to shooting the film itself, I set up HLC to make impactful films and amplify important voices.

With a background in visual effects, I learned the art of problem solving. I directed VFX commercials and music videos for major brands and artists before moving into long form in 2010.

I have worked as a broadcast offline editor, script writer and producer, and now concentrate on developing, producing and directing.

I work in Iceland regularly, and know and love that country well!

Og ég tala smá íslensku líka!
И я немного говорю по-русски))
Et aussi je parle et travaille en français fonctionnel.
