ClaraTägtström
Director, RSA Films
Clara's non-linear path to filmmaking and her background as a Swedish National Team golfer impart a unique perspective as a filmmaker. After graduating from Beckmans College of Design in Stockholm, she immersed herself in the world of filmmaking, directing campaigns for renowned clients such as Google, Nike, IKEA, Booking.com, Toyota, and for institutions like National Geographic and various non-profit organizations.
Clara's work demonstrates her ability to gain unique access to the people she films. Inspired by people and stories often overlooked by the media, she ventured into non-fiction storytelling. Currently, Clara is developing several long-form projects and directing her first feature documentary—an intimate coming-of-age story set on the margins of society, filmed over eight years. She has been supported by the Swedish Film Institute, The Arts Grant Committee, Malik Bendjelloul Memorial Fund, and Creative Europe, among others.
