His critically-acclaimed and award-winning feature films “Reprise” (2006) and “Oslo, August 31st” (2011), both co-written with Eskil Vogt, have been invited to and have won awards at international film festivals such as Cannes, Sundance, Toronto, Karlovy Vary, Gothenburg, Milan, and Istanbul. “Oslo, August 31st” was selected for Un Certain Regard at the Cannes Film Festival in 2011 and nominated for the César award for Best Foreign Film in 2013, after reaching over 180, 000 admissions at theatres in France. “Reprise” received the 2007 Amanda Award (Norway’s top film award) for Best Norwegian Film, Best Director and Best Script.
