Ruth Becquart

'Ruth Becquart' (qv) is a Flemish actress and theater producer/writer whose main playground was theater for a long time after graduating from Studio Herman Teirlinck (Drama) in Antwerp in 1999. She had her first taste of feature film with her roles in _Left Bank (2008)_ (qv) and _Dirty Mind (2009)_ (qv), both directed by 'Pieter Van Hees' (qv) . However, it wasn't until her turn as one of the five vengeful sisters in the hit Flemish TV series _Clan (2012)_ (qv) that she became known to a broader audience in Belgium. Other lead roles quickly ensued, her most memorable being that of naive prostitute Sandy in_Sylvia's Cats (2016)_ (qv), for which she was awarded the Best Actress award by her fellow Flemish actors and actresses. Her most recent credits include lead roles in _Gent West (2013)_ (qv), _De Dag (2018)_ (qv) and _Over Water - Im Netz der Lügen (2018)_ (qv). Ruth is a true chameleon, a physically strong actress who goes the extra mile to truthfully portray a character. She remains active in film/TV and tours nationally and internationally with her theater work. Ruth fluently speaks Dutch (mother tongue), English and French, and some German. Her skills include yoga, martial arts and dance (ballet - jazz - pole dancing).::M. Wouters
