About
Swedish artist Anna Odell makes provocative films that blur performance and reality. Born in 1973, she won two Guldbaggen Awards in 2014 for The Reunion (Best Film and Best Screenplay). Her 2009 film Okänd, kvinna 2009-349701 sparked widespread attention for its staged suicide attempt on Liljeholmsbron in Stockholm. Both works screened at the Venice Biennale Film Festival. As a Libra, she channels the sign's investigative intensity into work that interrogates social control and institutional power.

Biography
Anna Odell is a Swedish artist and film director born on 3 October 1973. She works across film and performance art, creating pieces that deliberately confuse documentary and constructed narrative. Her breakthrough came with Okänd, kvinna 2009-349701 in 2009, which depicted a faked suicide attempt on Liljeholmsbron in Stockholm and generated sustained media attention. The film's provocation established her as a core figure in the psycho-social art movement — a scene interrogating psychology, institutional systems, and public response. In 2014, she directed and wrote The Reunion, winning two Guldbaglen Awards in the Best Film and Best Screenplay categories. Both her major works have been selected for the Venice Biennale Film Festival, positioning her within international contemporary art discourse. Born under Libra, she gravitates toward work that weighs truth against perception, examining how institutions and audiences construct meaning. As a screenwriter and director, she operates at the intersection of visual art and cinema, where performance and documentation collapse into provocation. Her artistic practice is distinctly rooted in Swedish cultural and institutional contexts.
