Hi.

MY NAME IS GUSTAV WÄRN.

I am a 23 year old writer/director based in Stockholm, Sweden.

I have been working within the film industry since the age of 16, and have since then explored many territories within this abstract artform. My aim is to expand upon our idea of the medium, to push the boundaries of what a film can be.
I believe in the power of art - and that film is the medium best suited to fully captivate an audience in an immersive experience.

I truly believe that a film - if it is the right one at the right time - has the potential to change the world.
