Hemmavid/Homebound (2022)
“Homebound” is a short documentary poem about three women in a small village called Vormsele, in the far north of Sweden. We meet Isabelle who moved back home after a personal trauma, Rut who has lived there for 80-something-years, and Katharina - a German woman - who drove through the village 8 years ago with her husband and has stayed there since. What draws these people to this particular place?

What we leave behind (2017)
Two men spent their youth squatting in a wall-split Berlin, and have recently bumped into each other in the streets of Berlin again after 15 years of separation. “What we leave behind” is a tender, audio-driven portrait of the changes of the city, their friendship and of growing old as a restless soul.
Part of the process of making this film was letting the two men listen to the other one’s interview recordings of recollections of their time together, in an attempt to access deeper emotions and memories.

In the hands of others (2015)
Au pairs live with and work for a host family, providing the cheapest alternative to full-time childcare in the US, in exchange for room and board, pocket money and an "opportunity of a lifetime".
15 au pair sponsor organisations are being sued (by au pairs represented by the Denver based NGO Towards Justice) for fraud, collusion and failing to pay minimum wage - according to the Fair Labor Standards Act au pairs are underpaid by around $7000 a year.
Traveling to the US, learning a language and exploring a new culture can be enriching in many ways - but who is responsible when something goes wrong?
Who is responsible to help when help is needed?
Is it a fair trade-off, or an easy avenue for exploitation?
