Esben Sloth (1993) is a Danish film director and editor.
After spending two years studying cinema at Fotoskolen Fatamorgana and directing fiction at FAMU International Prague, Esben is now working as a film director and editor. He seeks inspiration in the sensual and physicality of our bodies, in cross culture experiences and the meetings inbetween. His desire is to move cinema into a bodily and sensual experience that seems beyond rational understanding and explanations.
