Connect with Jimmy Olsson


Jimmy Olsson is an award-winning director and writer who began working with film professionally in 2005 after attending a two-year training course at Kulturama in Stockholm. Jimmy takes events and experiences from his own life and recreates them into new contexts in order to understand them better. His latest movie "2nd Class" has garnered great success at various film festivals around the world. The film was an example of a new way for Jimmy to make movies. It is a film where he was inspired by the Dardenne Brothers but also a film that is clearly original and shows Jimmy's own style. In the future, Jimmy wants to tell stories that you feel in your stomach. He likes it is when it is low-key and when one gets the characters to work with their facial expressions.


Jimmy's goal is to continue making art house movies for broader audiences.
