He inherits the position fifty years after his compatriot, <strong>Ingrid Bergman<\/strong>.

This is evident from his first international success, Snow Therapy (2014). In this chilling comedy, the filmmaker films a model Swedish family falling apart. Faced with an avalanche, the father flees at full speed leaving wife and children to face the danger alone. Ruben \u00d6stlund shatters the constructed patterns of the protective father and <strong>attacks the foundations of Western society.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/u0n21qQVaUM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With The Square (2017), the director won the Palme d&#8217;Or at the 70th Cannes Film Festival. It features a director of a contemporary art museum, responsible for preparing an exhibition on tolerance. There too, the clever Swede manages to create unease. This satire brilliantly discusses the boundaries of public space, art and our animal part.
