3 FRACTURES (2015)
Here are three lives governed by power and chance. Each human interaction is defined by a balance of control, and dominance shifts from one person to the next depending on the setting. In the aftermath of an economic crisis, moral dilemmas abound. The film portrays decisive moments in the lives of three characters. Even though the characters are related, their values and goals in life will separate them even more than before. The violating business man Alexander struggles with his own soldier background and has become an addict to medicine to calm his anxiety towards life. Meryem is a respected doctor who tries to figure out her place between her new and old country, and Jonas is striving for success which has consequences for his marriage. The story about Alexander, Meryem and Jonas depicts split seconds of a modern, changing society that is in crisis - individually and globally.

FÖRANDRA SKOLAN! [2013]
The film describes the teacher’s frustration and attempts to get pupils attention. With Socrates help, he changes his attitude from trying to gain control. He introduces thoughts about man, contributing to self-awareness and the sense of shared responsibility for creating work comfort and motivation in the class.

The film’s idea is also to reflect on the purpose of the school. Is it to shape children into working life resources or to help them grow as fellow human beings? Do you prefer competition and individualism in favor of community and solidarity?

The film can be seen by teachers and other school staff to reflect on the insights it awakens with each one. It can also be shown to students. One tip is not to answer yourself to the students’ questions, but instead ask; what do you think about it yourself?

The film can be used as a discussion material in various subjects such as Swedish or other languages, social orientation or psychology.
