About / Bio Sami El Hassani (1992) was born and raised in Rotterdam. His passion for filming started at the skatepark with his friends. He worked a whole summer to buy his first camera, a VX1000, which is considered the holy grail for skateboard filming. With this camera, he experienced many beautiful moments on the streets of Rotterdam and met people from all different walks of life. “I think that’s where my interest in other people’s stories started,” he says.
Sami has worked on several music videos and commercials. Besides this, in September 2021, his first series, ‘Koeriers’, aired. The series follows young couriers in uptown Amsterdam trying to become leaders of the workplace, one pizza at a time. He recently worked on ‘Yous en Yay’, the feature film ‘Stien Blom’ and the Videoland series ‘Tonnano’.
