With a strong sense of wonder and a huge dose of heart, master storyteller Jesper Ericstam captures what it means to be human.

Hailing from Stockholm, Jesper’s unique talent lies in his refreshing insistence on saying exactly what he thinks and his ability to find both comedy and real emotion in authentic, everyday moments. His work has garnered recognition worldwide, collecting Bronze, Silver, and Gold Lions at Cannes, two Gold Epicas, a EuroBest Silver, multiple Golden Eggs, and Best Swedish Director. A true storyteller, he has helmed heartfelt campaigns for McDonald’s, IKEA, Bank of America, Cheerios, HSBC, and many more.

He meticulously plans and structures his storytelling, but when his finished films are viewed, they appear to be spontaneous slices of life, very often featuring people in their underwear.
