Pool Rule
Short fiction (English)
Role: Editor
Pandemonium breaks out among the swimmers at a local indoor swimming pool as a woman decides to swim topless.
Directed by Alva Winbladh.
Won the Best Nordic Short Film Award at NUFF-Nordisk Ungdom Film Festival, 2022. The jury writes:
This year's winner approached a topic that is relevant to all of us, where an individual act becomes a great deal to everyone involved when coming into a social space. The filmmaker brings the viewer into a social-anthropological study, which will spark a lot of debate and reactions. The film`s characters are probably sitting in this room, perhaps seated next to you. The use of humor dismantles the confronting nature of the scenario, and we in the jury were all impressed by the finesse with which the filmmaker accomplished this. We sincerely apologize to everyone who was offended by all the topless human beings in the swimming pool, but the best Nordic film goes to Pool Rule!
