Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia (Basque: [ɡalder ɣas̻telu urutia]; born 17 February 1974) is a Spanish film and advertising director and producer.[1] He made his feature-film debut with The Platform (2019), a dystopian science fiction-horror film.

Early life and education

Gaztelu-Urrutia was born on 17 February 1974 in Bilbao.[2] He completed a B.A. in business management with a specialization in international trade.[1]

Career

He directed the short films 913 (2004) and The House on the Lake (2011).[1] He also directed commercials.[1] His feature film debut was in 2019 with the dystopian science fiction-horror film The Platform (its Spanish title is El hoyo, transl. The Hole).[1] About the film, he said the point is "it isn’t about a war between those above and those below — we all have someone above us and someone below us".[3]

In February 2023, Deadline announced his next film will be a thriller titled Rich Flu, starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Jonah Hauer-King.[4]

Influences and style

Gaztelu-Urrutia has named Dante's Divine Comedy as one of his literary influences for The Platform, as well as films such as Buñuel's The Exterminating Angel (1962), Jeunet's Delicatessen (1991), Ridley Scott's Blade Runner (1982) and Scorsese's Taxi Driver (1976).[5]
