Director Biography - Ulrica de la Mar

Director:
In the summer of 2020 I had the opportunity to work with director Jessica Lau as first assistant director. My experience of assistant director at The Hague Comedy' theatre company, was a big advantage to understand the wishes of a director.
Thanks to all these wonderful experiences I directed my own short film: #planB (2022) about the impact of plastic pollution.

Actress:
For a long time, I've been working as an assistant director/prompter full time in the drama theater industry. Through my family, I've come into contact with this field at a young age. Even now I still regularly enjoy visiting the theater and the cinema.
With my film roles in Mi Casa su Blanca, Handkerchief's Tale and Kold, I won several awards.

Director Statement

It was a week of many reports in the newspapers about violence against someone of a different sexual orientation. It goes on and on. So sad.
That's why I decided to make this short film 'Butterfly'. To draw much-needed attention to these crucial aspects of the fight against Homophobia.
