What aspect drew you to living in Lisbon as it is very different, especially weather wise, to Gothenburg, Sweden, where you were born and raised? I used to live in London for quite a while then settled down here for a few years now. Due to the nature of my profession I travel to several different countries, so it doesn’t make me particularly miss the weather of my hometown.
Many of my close friends live in the southern parts of Europe. I enjoy (Lisbon) because it is close to the ocean and there is a mixture of different cultures that coexist together. I have to leave home quite often, so when I do go home, I want to go to a place where I can rest peacefully, and I can do that in Lisbon. Since Lisbon is also in Europe I don’t feel as though I am that far away from my family in Sweden – I think that’s a big advantage.
The next movie you’re doing through Netflix, Earthquake Bird, is shot in Tokyo. Did shooting with different people with a mix of different backgrounds have an influence over the person you are today? Of course! The fact that I was able to work with people of different backgrounds allows me to encounter and experience the culture on a deeper level than a traveller who simply visited a place. Most of the crew on the set of Earthquake Bird were Korean and Japanese so I had a chance to feel the North East Asian culture much more than I had been exposed to in the past. The fact that I was born and raised in a small country such as Sweden and am now able to experience a myriad of different cultures is one of the big advantages of my profession. When I have a chance to go on a holiday, I’d open up a map and try to find a place where I can experience a new culture.
