Niko von Glasow is one of the most popular and richest Film Director who was born on August 23, 1960 in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
In 2008, Niko convinced 11 other victims of Thalidomide to strip naked for a calendar photo shoot. NoBody’s Perfect, the documentary about the making of this calendar, won the German Film Award and resulted in a powerful campaign for the victims of Thalidomide. His next film, “Everything Will Be Alright”, documents the making of a unique live theatre production, which von Glasow wrote and developed. The film goes behind the scenes of the play and features a wonderful cast of physically and mentally disabled actors.
In 2008 he produced and directed the feature documentary NoBody’s Perfect. With a darkly humorous touch and no deference to political correctness, NoBody’s Perfect follows Niko von Glasow as he looks for eleven people who, like him, were born disabled due to the disastrous side-effects of thalidomide, and who are prepared to pose nude for a calendar of photos. The film won the German Film Award for Best Documentary at the Deutscher Filmpreis in 2009 and went on to receive worldwide acclaim. Through the film’s worldwide success, Niko was able to meet with various politicians and journalists. An effective campaign resulted in the German government’s decision to raise monthly compensation (which will amount to over €2.7billion over the next 30 years) for the 2,700 surviving victims of Thalidomide in Germany.
