With Bis Zum Tod the team of Nya Rampen, Institutet and Markus Öhrn is completing a triptych dealing with the western middle class nuclear family structure: If Conte d’Amour (2010) described a story of vertical stepping down into the psychotic cellar of romantic love, while We love Africa and Africa loves us (2012) dealt with an outsourcing projection of inner chaos on a far away, imaginary continent, this third and final piece is dealing with love as a power of negation. Love becomes not only a paradox of identity formation, but also a death drive mechanism of self-destruction inherent to the psycho-logic of the family.

Cannes 2014, Un Certain Regard:
the Jury Prize goes to Ruben Östlund’s Force Majeure.
I am the Costume Designer for this feature film. With a lot of credits to Hege Riksfjord Hådell and Sara Pertmann for for helping make the costumes fantastic!!!
“Force Majeure” (“Turist”) highlights behavior that people have seen in others — mostly in conflict areas — think they’ll never resort to, and then have to admit that they have that side to their character.”
It turns on a happy Swedish family — father, mother, two kids — holidaying in the French Alps. An avalanche sparks a spontaneous act of cowardice from the father, who can’t understand why he reacted that way.
