Christian Lo

More by this director

Christian Lo (b. 1977) graduated from the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) in England in 2001. He now works for the Lillehammer-based production company Filmbin, the only Norwegian production company dedicated entirely to producing children’s and youth films.

Christian thinks children are a fantastic audience and hopes he is able to give them great film experiences, like the ones he remember from his own childhood.
He finds working with children fun and inspiring, and has developed a way of directing children that makes his films characteristic.

Christian has directed four award-winning short films for children;
PUNCTURED (2001), IVER (2004), RAMP (2005) and BALUBA RUNA (2007).
All these films have been screened at a wide range of international film festivals, have won many awards and are sold to TV-stations in several European countries.
RAFIKI (BESTEVENNER) is Christian’s first feature film.
