Stig

Suecia. 2008. Color. 17 min. Ficción. 35mm.
  • Film Director: Henrik Gyllenskiöld; Tomas Norström.
  • Producer: Martin Österdahl.
Stig is a man in his forties. Probably middle-class, works full-time, gets a decent paycheck and drives a nice new car from a well-known Japanese brand. He is married and dresses well without being a snob. Still he performs what most people would consider totally irrational actions. Why?

Henrik Gyllenskiöld
Tomas was born in 1956. Since 1976 he has been acting in many popular feature films, among them "Psalmer fra Kjökkenet" by Bent Hamer that was selected for Quinzaine des Réalisateurs in Cannes, 2003. He has also been directing - and acting - for theatres and until 2001 he was the Artistic director for the theatre Nya Pistolteatern in Stockholm. When it comes to film, the short film "Stig" is Tomas's directorial debut.
