ABOUT

ANNA LEIJONHIELM

My education comes from art schools and film school in Oslo, Norway, where I built my strengths in producing, directing, and editing. I was raised in the Bible Belt in the south of Norway. As a child, I was drawn to the surrounding nature, which sparked my curiosity about both the inner and outer worlds. I am interested in the human mechanism — how we all have a desire to grow and move forward, yet sometimes cannot. Ultimately, it's about our yearning for love and affirmation. My roots are in Iceland, a place where storytelling is a profound art form that I admire, and I aim to master it through my films and artworks.
