Out of the impressive 30 documentaries that Rožle has completed as a cinematographer, he premiered his third feature-length documentary, “One for the River: The Sava Story,” in the role of director.

During the COVID-19 restrictions were lifted, Rožle got an opportunity to work on a BBC project. For the series “BBC Earth’s Great Rivers II,” he got his first role in a big production as a cinematographer.

Rožle started a documentary project with alpinist Davo Karničar, who completed the first ski descent from Mt. Everest in 2000 and all seven summits. To capture his story, we traveled to Nepal and climbed the challenging Mt. Denali in Alaska. Tragically, that same year, Davo passed away by accident. As a result, the film has unfortunately remained unfinished.

With the aim of defending Balkan rivers, Rožle embarked on a kayaking journey through the region with the “Balkan River Defence” team. The original plan was to create a short film about their trip and raise awareness against dams. However, as they flowed down the rivers, they soon realized that their story was more than just a few minutes long. Two years later, they released the feature-length worldwide awarded documentary “The Undamaged.”

Rožle started visiting Iceland more frequently. He reconnected with his best friend, Siggi. Their friendship grew stronger than ever as they began to embark on countless outdoor adventures and worked on various film projects together.

Rožle traveled to Greenland on a sailboat with director Jure Breceljnik to produce a documentary film, “The Last Ice Hunters”. During the project, Jure suddenly passed away. Two years later, Rožle and his crew completed the film, with Rožle stepping up to take over as director.

As the first generation in Slovenia, Rožle completed the International Award for Young People program in 2007. Later he embarked on a trek to Nepal as an INTAWARD instructor and cinematographer with a group of young people. During this expedition, he created a short documentary film.

Rožle was invited as a camera guy to film “The Sphinx” on the north face of Triglav mountain. The filming process was incredibly challenging, but it turned out to be a very famous film that won numerous awards worldwide. This incredible opportunity opened many doors for Rožle’s career.

Graduated from Sport Photography at Institute and Academy for Multimedia in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

A winter journey in the Japanese Alps took an unexpected turn when Rožle was suddenly buried under an immense snow avalanche. Luckily he managed to survive.

Rožle founded the video production company Vizualist, where he and a group of young enthusiasts have been sharing a passion for motion pictures enriched with sound in a different, unique style.

His supportive mother gifted Rožle his first professional DSLR camera. This particular piece of equipment was the only one she ever bought for him, but it set him on a path to success in photography. He was able to sell his very first piece of work.
