Selma Sunniva

Director
Class #12

Because of an old-fashioned divorce settlement, Selma Sunniva is around 80% from Frederiksberg and around 20% from Ørholm (a small village nearby Brede), Denmark.

She has difficulties describing herself, because of her rather strained relation to the concept of “identity”. She claims it's caused by her lack of interest in herself, but this claim probably isn’t very accurate, as she uses most of her time expressing herself, and is deeply invested in, and forever fascinated by, the potential of storytelling, politically and psychologically.

Selma is ambitious, not just on her own behalf, but on everyone’s behalf. This makes her a somewhat tepid friend, but a splendid business associate and teamplayer. Typically her work is built up around the synergy between the absurd and the realistic, the architecture of universes and the development of characters, something Selma Sunniva is deeply passionated about.

At the moment Selma lives in an apartment with her two cats and a view of an old willow tree.

Til den mørke nat

Et ungt forældrepar tager deres lille søn med ud i skoven. Da drengen pludselig forsvinder, begynder en desperat søgen, hvor mørket falder på, og naturen afslører sin ubarmhjertige side. Håbet svinder, mens de presses længere ind i skovens uforudsigelige dyb. Det, der begyndte som en almindelig dag, udvikler sig til et mareridt uden vej tilbage.
