Anna won in Cannes

Anna Sæunn studied acting at the Icelandic Film School but she is now at Cannes where showings of the film Hrútar are ongoing and a competitor in the Un Certain Regard part of the festival. But that’s not all because she participated in the the pitch competition (Shorts TV) where she presented an idea for a short film called Salvation. The winning prize is 5000 euros to support making the film. 5 films were nominated but in the end, the panel picked 1 winner and as it turns out, that winner is Anna Sæunn.

The Icelandic Film School congratulates her for her amazing success in Cannes and at the same time, we look forward to seeing the film when it is ready.
