Jos Stelling (born July 16, 1945, in Utrecht, Netherlands) is a renowned Dutch filmmaker celebrated for his visually driven, dialogue-sparse style. A self-taught director, he debuted with "Mariken van Nieumeghen" (1974), which competed at Cannes, and went on to create acclaimed works such as "The Illusionist" (1983), "The Pointsman" (1986), and "The Waiting Room" (1995). In 1981, he founded the Dutch Film Days, the precursor to the Netherlands Film Festival, and later became a key figure in Utrecht’s arthouse cinema scene by opening the Springhaver and Louis Hartlooper Complex. Known for exploring the tension between opposites—desire and restraint, connection and solitude—Stelling crafts poetic, often humorous portraits of human nature without relying on words, earning multiple Golden Calf awards and international recognition for his singular cinematic voice.
