Katia Forbert Petersen (born 6 February 1949) is a Polish-Danish cinematographer, film director, producer, and writer, known for her work on the Danish-language films En fremmed piges dagbog (1989), Behind the Mountains (2004), and My Iranian Paradise (2008), among others.[3]

Petersen has been involved in approximately 150 documentary and feature films over her career, and has done work for Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen in Germany and the National Film Board of Canada.[4]

Career

[edit]

The daughter of Polish engineer and cinematographer Wladyslaw Forbert, Petersen spent her early career studying cinematography at the National Film School in Łódź, Poland. In response to the mounting anti-Semitic political crisis in Poland, Petersen emigrated to Denmark, where she held dual citizenship, after receiving her degree in 1969.[4]

Petersen joined the Danish Film Institute in 1973. Soon after, she managed cinematography for three feminist feature films: the Danish film Take It Like a Man, Madam (1975), and two German films: The Power of Men is the Patience of Women (1978) and Redupers: The All-Round Reduced Personality (1978). Since then, she has filmed and directed numerous feature and documentary productions in Denmark and abroad.[1]

Petersen is a frequent collaborator of fellow Danish women directors Annette Mari Olsen and Mette Knudsen. In 1988, Petersen and Olsen founded the production company Sfinx Film/TV, through which the duo continues to produce films together.[5]
