Linn Mannheimer is an award-winning Swedish director working across television drama and premium unscripted content.

With a background in comedy, both on screen and behind the camera, she brings a strong sense of tone, rhythm, and performance to character-driven storytelling. She is known for her work with actors, with a focus on grounded, emotionally precise performances.

She has directed episodes of the crime series Sanningen (Fallen), starring Sofia Helin, the second season of which premiered in 2025. She has also served as creator, head writer and director of the drama series Heartbeats (TV4), which was nominated for Best Young Adult Drama at the Kristallen Awards.

Her work also extends into unscripted storytelling, where she explores real-life narratives with the same character-driven approach, most recently as creator and executive producer of the SVT series Ett år i USA.

Alongside her screen work, Linn is the creator of the industry initiative Humor i fokus and currently leads the Lund Comedy Festival. She is also developing a limited series set in early 1930s Europe, as well as a contemporary character-driven thriller.
