Sigurd Kølster is a director and writer from Copenhagen, Denmark. He was first trained in the craft of film making by working as the personal assistant for the director of several major Scandinavian TV-series, such as 'Borgen' and 'Broen' (The Bridge). He later moved to the United Kingdom, to study at The National Film & Television School as a director. His own short film works often balance the funny and the tragic, the poetic and soft, and the violent and surprising.
