Johannes Stjärne Nilsson
24.03.1969, Lund, Sweden
Director, screenwriter, producer and editor. He received his degree in applied arts from the Konstfack College of Arts in Stockholm, and has since worked as graphic designer and animator. He started making short films with his childhood friend Ola Simonsson, without prior formal education in film. After several films about Mr Pendel (Herr Pendel - flickorna (1999), Herr Pendel - fotbollen (1999), Herr Pendel - regnet (1999)), they made Music for One Apartment and Six Drummers (2001). The film achieved great success, and after a few more short films based on a similar idea, they made their first feature film Sound of Noise (2010), which achieved even greater acclaim.
