7 mins 30 secs. Animation

INTRODUCTION
Comic book writer/artist Kolbeinn Karlsson once introduced his latest comic Sleeping and Dreaming of Food by saying that it's about sleeping and dreaming of food.
We quite like that simple introduction to a story this rich and imaginative.

In fact, we liked the comic so much that we decided to make a short film out of it.

Then Uppsala Short Film Festival liked the film so much, they decided to award us with an honorary mention with the motivation:

"For an inventive and atmospheric piece of animation that skillfully and confidently straddles the divide between two art forms."

The film then landed Eva-Marie a nomination to the prestigious 1 km Film scholarship at Stockholm Film Festival.

"Eva-Marie Elg has adapted Kolbeinn Karlssons strange comic into an - if possible - even more bizarre film. Accompanied by Kallioinia's mystical score the static comic book images comes to life in a dreamy perspective." Stockholm Film Festival
