Pastor, Chairman of "Kirke og film" in Denmark
Country of origin
Denmark

Morten Sternberg is pastor at Sundby church in Copenhagen, which is a part of the Danish People’s Church, and chairman of the association Kirke og Film (Church and Film).

"When I studied theology at the University of Copenhagen, I specialized i.a. in priests in Danish films in the 20th century. I have always been a bit of a movie nerd and love to use both blockbusters and more arty movies to illustrate Christianity."
