Author, filmmaker &
theatre-maker.

Hi, I’m Puneeth JH, an Indian writer and artist based in Luxembourg. I tell stories wherever they agree to live—on the page, on screen or on stage. Since publishing my first novel in 2015, I have written fiction, made a short film, developed several screenplays and brought multiple stage productions to life.
I grew up in Bangalore and now do my adulting in Luxembourg. Since stories have not yet volunteered to feed my family, I work at SES with actual satellites. Academically, I researched satellite communications, earned a PhD and published a few papers along the way.
I share a roof with my pregnant wife and our toddler. They leave me less time to write, but provide most of the drama.

Stories from Luxembourg.
For the page, screen and stage.
My work moves between psychological thrillers, mysteries set in Luxembourg and stories about identity, migration and belonging. From novels to English-language theatre, each story finds its own form.
