Chris Blackeye

Christos N. Mavromatis, professionally known as Chris Blackeye, is a 25-year-old filmmaker from Thessaloniki, Greece, with a deep love for genre cinema—especially horror—not just for its thrills, but for its power to tell bold, allegorical stories. His debut film 'Shadows' explores this intersection of fear and meaning, using the language of horror to reflect deeper truths about human nature.

Born on January 6, 2000, Mavromatis began his academic journey studying Journalism and Film Theory at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, building a strong foundation for understanding cinema’s narrative and cultural impact. He later pursued formal studies in Film Directing, where he refined his technical skills and developed his unique cinematic voice.
