From writers’ rooms to edit suites, Benjamin
has built a career that moves between
writing, directing, and producing. After
studying animation at Film University
Babelsberg, he completed his directing
studies at Berlin’s DFFB, where his feature
Stadt Land Fluss premiered at Berlinale
Generation (2011). As a creative producer,
Benjamin engaged with production
companies, both in Germany and Hungary,
focusing on the development and financing
of documentaries, series, and feature films.
Among them are the comedy series Just
Push Abuba (ZDF, 2019), the anthology ZEIT
Verbrechen (Paramount+, 2023), and the
doc-series Love Scam (Sky Studios, 2025). In
2021, Benjamin was hired by Netflix Studios
as showrunner on the true-crime series Dig
Deeper, before he co-wrote and directed
the docudrama Eldorado – Everything
the Nazis Hate, a Netflix Original. Having
a broad understanding of storytelling,
Benjamin aims to elevate series projects as a
development producer and story editor.
