Arts & Sciences Signs Torstein Bjørklund For U.S. Representation

We are excited to announce that actor-turned-director Torstein Bjørklund has joined the Arts & Sciences family.

Known throughout Scandinavia and Europe for his absurdist humor and storytelling, Bjørklund’s distinctive approach behind his films has made him a widely popular director in Europe, earning a Gullruten Award (The Gold Screen, Norway’s TV Award) in 2022 for his narrative debut, directing the Norwegian comedy hit series Basic Bitch, for which he’s helmed sixteen episodes total. His other Gullruten-nominated television credits include directing the first season of the Norwegian dramedy Fling and a season of Superheltskolen (Superhero Academy). His sharp eye for nuanced performances and specific visuals has translated beautifully to his commercial work, directing ads for brands like McDonald’s, Toyota, Orkla, and Telenor, among many others.
