Event Description : 'And Who Taught You To Drive' A film by Andrea Thiele 

Driving through traffic at home is already stressful enough. Now imagine driving a car in a completely foreign country. Mirela, moving from Germany to India, Jake moving from the USA to Japan and South Korean Hye-Won living in Germany are facing the same problem: they are all forced to obtain a new local driver’s license. Driving lessons soon become lessons in life when our protagonists discover that getting through the day will involve much more than just obeying the rules of the road in their host country. 

German born, US based documentary filmmaker Andrea Thiele was inspired by her own interest and experiences with driving tests in foreign countries. Together with writer Lia Jaspers, they created a sly documentary comedy about the joys of cultural acceptance and difference, as seen through the eyes of three warm, memorable individuals.  

Andrea Thiele was born in 1976 in Munich, graduated from University of Miami with a degree in Mass Communication and then went on to graduate from the Academy of Film and Television, Munich, where she majored in Documentary Filmmaking with her film PRIVATE EYES. Since 2007, Thiele has been working as a Director/Young Producer for commercials in the US. AND WHO TAUGHT YOU TO DRIVE? is her feature length documentary debut.
