Caroline Ingvarsson is an award-winning scriptwriter and director born in Malmö. She has lived, studied and worked overseas, giving her an international approach to filmmaking. She graduated from Sydney Film School (2006) and holds a Master’s degree in broadcast journalism from City, University of London (2008).

It is only fitting that her first feature film is a UK/Polish/Swedish production. Unmoored, based on Håkan Nesser’s book The Living and the Dead in Winsford, is a psychological drama-thriller that had its world premiere at the BFI London Film Festival in 2023.

Caroline's approach to filmmaking involves challenging perceptions to reveal diverse facets within stories. She skilfully explores characters' inner thoughts, crafting narratives across genres that forge connections and resonate with audiences on a personal level. Positioned between mainstream and art house, her creations offer a distinct perspective.

Her previous film Beneath the Spaceship (2015) was awarded the After Bergman Script Award and premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. The documentary The Dogwalker won the Audience Award at the Uppsala Short Film Festival and the jury’s second prize for Best Documentary at Palm Springs ShortFest. Her short film We Were Three premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival (2018) and received the Bonnie Scholarship at the Göteborg International Film Festival. She was selected to take part as one of six female directors for Pure Fiction (2015) as well as Fårö Talents (2015) and Berlinale Talents (2015). She also received the SWEA Los Angeles Film Scholarship (2015).

Prior to working as a director and a scriptwriter, Caroline worked on set as a 1st AD, 2nd AD, casting director and production coordinator for more than 10 years. She loves the thrill of working on set.

Caroline is currently developing two different feature films, a sci-fi drama inspired by our ecosystem and a relationship drama inspired by her own relationship.
