My name is Leonard Sanftenschneider. I'm a young screenwriter from Germany and have been enthusiastic about telling stories for as long as I can remember...
This enthusiasm has eventually expanded to screenplays through my love of film and from 2017 - 2019, to learn more about the film industry, I studied film production at SAE-Bochum, Germany.

Since graduating, I have been working on my own concepts and screenplays, was nominated for the "Young Screenwriter Award" of the Crime-Television Festival in Germany in 2022 and 2025 I won "Best Short Screenplay" at the Actionfilm Festival in Austin, Texas.

​

Since the end of 2025 I'm in a Mentorship with the american screenwriter Keith W. Strandberg (No Retreat No Surrender, Bloodmoon)
