GEORGE-PETERLAND (GÖSTA PETTER-LAND) Short Film Competition

GEORGE-PETERLAND (GÖSTA PETTER-LAND)

North American Premiere

Screens as part of SHORTS PROGRAM: ANIMATION 1

Five eight-year-olds found the imaginary world “George-Peterland,” a dreamy forest land with cute chickens you can travel to just by shutting your eyes. When rules take over the imaginary world, it becomes a nightmare.

Christer Wahlberg is a filmmaker and composer who lives in Gothenburg with his partner and daughter. He likes to experiment as much as possible and is always looking for new ways to tell a story. Christer’s previous short YOU ARE ALWAYS 20 was nominated for Best Short Film at the 2021 Guldbagge Awards.

Sebastian Rudolph Jensen is a multimedia artist who works mainly with performance, installation, film and performing arts. His work sets on the border between life and art and, through its unpredictability, can be perceived as lustful criticism against all forms of conformism.
