Whether you have directed a short or a feature film, have a screenplay ready, or are in the process of writing and/or directing a new film, then our series At the Roundtable is for you!
Halfdan Ullmann Tøndel has just returned from Cannes, where his feature film debut, ARMAN, had its world premiere in Un Certain Regard and took home the Caméra d’Or award. We are very happy he is joining us in Grimstad for an exclusive roundtable session with a group of filmmakers, to talk about his experiences, career, and craft as a screenwriter and director.
With a limited number of seats, we will create an open and honest space where the filmmaker in focus will meet with participants, answer their questions, and share tips and experiences from their career in the film industry. Participants are also encouraged to share their own experiences, and have questions prepared.
This version of At the Roundtable is limited to ten participants.
The event is now fully booked.
*This event will be in Norwegian.
Friday 14:30 Clarion Collection Hotel Grimstad
Halfdan Ullmann Tøndel studerte regi ved Westerdals kunstskole. Han filmdebuterte med kortfilmen Fuglehjerter (2015), som hadde premiere i Karlovy Vary og vant Gullstolen på Kortfilmfestivalen i 2016. Den mottok en Amandanominasjon, og var på Cineuropas liste over de beste europeiske kortfilmer fra 2016.
I 2017 hadde hans neste kortfilm, Fanny, premiere i Aspen, mottok nok en Amandanominasjon, i tillegg til en ny plass på Cineuropas liste over de beste europeiske kortfilmer. Begge filmene har blitt vist på festivaler over hele verden.
