Alar Kivilo is a Hollywood cinematographer. His lenses have captured for screens names such as Keanu Reeves, Frank Sinatra, Jessica Lange, Colin Farrell, Jack Black, Kevin Bacon, Bruce Willis, Sandra Bullock, and many others.

Alar is also a photographer. Even when he’s not on set, he keeps his eyes open, hoping to catch anything interesting that surrounds him. From an early age, he became attracted to the beautiful environment that lies in the fractures of our everyday lives—city streets, walls, pavement. In all of them, he discovers mystical figures and vast landscapes. Immersing in fractures is like a pleasant painting trip for him.
