  • Quotes
    Rams (2015) could in some sense be considered a very Scandinavian film, being a cocktail of drama and black humor. I think it could be compared with certain recent Nordic films, Bent Hamer's Salmer fra kjøkkenet (2003) and Nói albinói (2003) by Dagur Kári. But "Hrútar" is more realistic than those films and maybe I was also a little bit influenced by the so-called Romanian New Wave. I was also inspired by the novel "Independent People" by Halldór Laxness, written in 1935. Although written in different time period, the book has similar themes...[2015]
