turn his back on his childhood dream and on a whim, enrolled in a film school. In 2011, he
graduated from RITCS in Brussels with The Letter, a short film based on his cycling
experiences. It won him the VAF Wildcard and was screened at numerous international
among which Hong Kong, tel Aviv and Encounters.
Mercken used his wildcard to shoot his second short film Feel Sad for the Bunny which won him an Ensor for best Flemish short and was selected in Guanajuato and Raindance. His debut feature film Coureur had its international premiere in Rotterdam and travelled on to Gent and Göteborg. It was released in cinemas March 2019.
