Amalie Maria Nielsen

Director
Class #13

Growing up with a single mom on the island of Funen, Amalie Maria spent a great deal of her upbringing playing in the back yard Appletree. Today they would describe themselves as a particularly extrovert loner.

Amalie Marias latest shortfall The Shift had it’s worldpremier at the Berlinale - Berlin international film festival 2023 following by a world tour where the film has won several awards, including The next generation at the Karlovery vary filmfestival, Filmfyns talent award at Odense film festival 2023 and is currently nominated for a Robert award at the Danish academy.

Amalie Maria has been quite in doubt about which pronouns they were going to use in this text, but they have arrived at: a bit of everything. In a way, this says a great deal about their work, since Amalie often is occupied by characters that are under pressure from social gender expectations. Furthermore, she is fascinated by our ever changing needs for intimacy and her gaze often falls upon relationships that are situated in a borderland.

Fiction is the magic mirror of the world, and in a time where the world is on fire they find fiction more important than ever. In their experience we as a species have collectively forgotten that the world is only loaned to us. Even though Amalie Maries films often take a point of departure in herself, it is utmost important to her that they touch upon politcal agendas or comments on problematic tendencies in our society.

Amalie Maria lives with her three best friends and a baby in a share house in Copenhagen and she believes strongly that she makes a killer lasagne.
