Chris Kentis is a renowned American filmmaker, celebrated for his impressive body of work in the realm of film direction, screenwriting, and editing. One of his most notable and critically acclaimed achievements is the feature film Open Water, which premiered at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival in 2003. This remarkable film was made without the assistance of a traditional crew, all while being produced on a remarkably modest budget of $120,000.
