ZOMBIE - The resurrection of Tim Zom from Billy Pols on Vimeo.
Tim Zom, born and raised in the South of Rotterdam, steps out of a dark past and stands at the point of becoming an international professional skateboarder. His career takes him from the cold Dutch reality into the American Dream, with big companies like Nike and Monster Energy supporting him. ZOMBIE is a film about a unique and surprising character who, through talent and personality and against all odds, grew out to become a hero.
"Zombie is a film the way documentaries should be, cut straight out of life – still warm and bloody; a balanced portrait" (NRC Handelsblad)
"This documentary is raw and intense: seldom has any film given us such a raw and real insight in the life of a marginal kid like Tim." (Sp!ts/Metro)
Biography: Billy Pols grew up in South Africa. In the Netherlands, he studied to become an art director, but always kept an eye on film. He started his career as documentary director with the multiple-awarded film PLANK.
