Broken Dreamland
Co-Producer
They were children when they left, dreaming of a life without worry: freedom and wealth. But what awaited them was a nightmare. One of them began to change, leading him to commit a lethal knife attack in Turku, Finland. By following the lives of two of the attacker’s friends, the film delves into the experiences of an entire generation of young Moroccan men who feel like they do not belong anywhere. While their families push them to travel to Europe to find a better life, Europe casts them out.
The Last Autumn
Producer
More than a thousand autumns ago, humans arrived with their animals to a land pushed up against the Arctic Ocean. Autumns came and autumns went. Where the road ends, Úlfar, the last in a long line of farmers, lives with his wife. As autumn returns their grandchildren arrive from the city to attend the last herding of the flock. Next autumn farming will cease and all the sheep will be gone, but the landscape pushed up against the Arctic Ocean will continue to tell about that one Last Autumn.
Dive - Rituals in Water
Director
For 28 years, Icelandic babies and their new parents have bonded in a unique way at a shabby pool not far from the ocean and the mountains. Six days a week, Snorri, a pioneer and visionary swimming coach, creates a unique world where babies stand on his palm and swim underwater by opening lines of nonverbal communication and earning their — and their parents’ — trust.
Everything, Everywhere, All the Time
Co-Producer
Everything, Everywhere, All the Time opens with the sound of musicians performing an old Icelandic folk song, Grýlukvæði. Only, a couple of years ago, they didn’t know each other - now they're touring Europe together. In 2006, Icelandic producer Valgeir Sigurðsson founded the Bedroom Community record label with Nico Muhly and Ben Frost, soon adding Sam Amidon to the intimate roster. After three years of concerts, collaborations and acclaimed album releases, the then four artists of Bedroom Community headed out together for a trek across Europe: The Whale Watching Tour. More than just a series of concerts, the tour was an extension of the ongoing musical exchange between these diverse artists, having them contributing to each other's music on stage. The film follows the four artists on tour, but also provides insight into the colorful characters and explores the vision behind Bedroom Community as well as introducing the home of the label, the Greenhouse studios.
