PV Lehtinen was born in Helsinki, Finland. He is internationally acclaimed short film director, writer and producer. His international breakthrough was short film The Diver (Hyppääjä, 2000), which made history at the Tampere International Short Film Festival by winning the Grand Prix and four other prizes. In one way or another, many of his films involve the element of water, which he feels is an extremely interesting visual element.
