This is time is a debuting festival, the Crearity International Film Festival in Sofia, Bulgaria, where Midsommar had never been screened previously!

Really cool that both my “babies” will be featured at the Aword Indie Short Film Festival on 14-16 October!
Let’s see who will make the best out of it….
Frozen Polaroid: Thron Ullberg extreme photography
What distinguishes an artist of photography from a simple photographer? In this age of so much banality and an overdose of photography it should be difficult to find the boundary, and yet it isn’t. Because a photograph has energy, spirit, originality, a disturbing quality, or it doesn’t – despite filters, cropping and other post-production contortions. And the photography of Swede Thron Ullberg – currently with a one-person show called Vilsen (Lost) at the Elf Galleri in Gothenburg – is almost more art than photography. Continue reading
“Dignity” wins the “Children World” prize at the Salento Finibus Terrae!
This piece of news is actually a couple of months old, as this all happened at the end of July! But as I was trekking on mountain tops back then, I decided to wait for the announcement until I received a courier with my winning award, so that I could show it to you!
I am happy beyond word for having won this prize at such a beautiful and important festival as the Salento Finibus Terrae, driven with passion until its 14th edition by the director Romeo Conte.
“Dignity” back to California at the Paragon FF!
Hey what’s up?? Seems like I am getting famous in California all of a sudden! Three festival selections within a month 🙂
Let’s see how it goes at the Paragon Film Festival from 21st to 23rd October!
“Dignity” at the Incorto Festival in Mexico City
Back to my beloved Central America for this Incorto Festival in Maxico City, with final results in June 2017.
¡Que bueno, y ojalá que me vaya bien!
“Dignity” at the Alive Doc Festival!
A new laurel added to the heap of the recognitions received by “Dignity”! My documentary was selected by 33 festivals so far, and has received awards by 9 of them, almost one third of the total, WOW!
This weekend it was screened online at the Alive Doc – International Documentary Film Festival in Los Angeles.
I can’t stop looking at this beautiful poster!
“The Coltrane Code” at the UnderGround FilmFest
New selection for my “Coltrane” at a festival wholly dedicated to very scary films, wow!!
This is a lot of fun, I love my short to be screened there, and I hope I will reach the final that will take place during the week 14th to 19th of November at the Art Gallery Caffé Teatrino del Guasco in Ancona, Via Matas 21 – Vicolo Bonarelli. I will keep you posted on the screening schedule!
“Midsommar” also selected for the Premio Cinematografico Palena!
Well, I found out about this only now but… better late than never! Midsommar was selected also for the very prestigious Premio Cinematografico Palena, that picked it with other 60 films among the over 5000 shorts received!
Without wanting to repeat what I already wrote about the Västerås Filmfestival, I am just too happy for this new unexpected acknowledgement, yay!!
