The films directed by Mathias Hovgaard hook viewers every time with an element of surprise, often due to his organic approach to storytelling. Mathias began his career as a filmmaker directing shorts. He attended the European Film College and earned a Master's of Film from the University of Copenhagen.
He burst onto the international directing scene with his Cannes Young Director Award - nominated Lada 'Jump' commercial. As a child, Mathias dreamed about becoming an astronaut, exploring new worlds and flying spaceships. His plans have since changed, but his work remains stellar.
