ABOUT THE DIRECTOR
Elin was born 1994 in Uppsala, and grew up in Sigtuna and Salt Lake City, USA. Today she is based in Stockholm as a film director, and has directed several award-winning short films. As of 2018 she is studying Film Directing at Stockholm University of the Arts. Earlier she worked as assistant director on many productions. Her most recent film, 'Who Talks' (Ingen Lyssnar) - about a new refugee home for children being discussed at a public council meeting - was in Official Competition at the Cannes Film Festival.
