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."

At the 57th film festival Visions du Réel in Nyon the Interreligious Jury has awarded its Prize to the documentary "Dentro" by Elsa Amiel.
Following the promising nominations, the Oscar ceremony felt like a disappointment. For the first time, the Academy had nominated international films such as “Sentimental Value” from Norway and “Secret Agent” from Brazil in the Best Picture category. Yet in the end, it was American productions that walked away with all the awards.
