Machiel is best known for two films, namely, his directorial debut
"The Sako Tapes" and his second film "Noble Savage".
"The Sako Tapes" was received very well by the festival circuit. It was, for example, selected by more than 100 film festivals and won over 60 awards. "Noble Savage" is now being released and has already been positively received. Besides a growing amount of festival selections, it won more than 10 awards.
