PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Cup, which is short for Cupid is a film that offers the kind of adventure, sense friendship and love we used to get from the ’80s movies like ”Goonies” and ”ET”. Only this time we are transported into the Swedish small town milieu, with all its peculiarities and sensibilities.
”Cup” is a movie for all ages, with carefully selected environments and actors who create the adventure. We all have a child within us and this film will attract both adults and children.
This film is in pre-production.

Gusul (Washing) captures the final moment of intimacy between two Bosnian Muslim women in Sweden. Emina’s mother dies in their Swedish home. Emina refuses to let the authorities take care of the corpse until she has performed a ritual washing of her mother. Sweeping her mum in a traditional white sheet becomes her last gift. This film focuses on the mundane, intimate and unspectacular lives of Muslim refugees. It refuses to engage with controversial but vapid issues typically ascribed to Muslims, instead trying to capture the everydayness of life.
