“It feels surrealistic, crazy. Oscar is, the word itself, it’s something you’ve heard about since you were a kid. It never occurred to be that it was something anyone ever achieved. I mean, I’m from Sweden. It’s completely crazy,” he told the Free Press from Los Angeles.
reading the nomination brought tears to my eyes. i know it;s going to win. Lori

Wouldn’t that be the first Oscar for a movie that has been partly filmed with just an iPhone?
Even this is material for another movie!
Incredible work. Good luck!
