Originally from British Columbia,[2] Bertalan was twice honoured by the Canadian Student Film Festival while he was a film student at the University of British Columbia, receiving an honourable mention in 1982 for The Glass Door[3] and winning Best Director and Best Fiction Film in 1984 for The Roomer.[4] Later based in Montreal, he acted in several films, including Bashar Shbib's Seductio, Clair Obscur and 15 Ugly Sisters, while making A Bullet in the Head. The film, a war allegory about an injured soldier's struggle to survive in unfamiliar territory, was spoken entirely in an invented language.[5]
