The Sea 

by Douglas Rosenberg

A poetic exploration of aging, intimacy and camaraderie, set against the evocative backdrop of the Baltic Sea.

The Sea is a black-and-white feature film directed by Douglas Rosenberg, filmed entirely on location along the Baltic Sea. Drawing inspiration from the evocative landscapes of Ingmar Bergman’s Fårö Island, the film explores aging and the intimate relationships between men in their later years. Featuring a cast of predominantly untrained performers from the Fårö area, The Sea reflects on camaraderie and the ways life’s experiences leave their marks on our bodies, expressed through movement and the passage of time.

Fuengirola before death

a surreal and darkly humorous journey through memory, ritual, and the absurd. From the hum of a car wash at night to intense performance rituals with shaman drums and a tubaist, the project shifts from introspective solitude to chaotic creation. It's a fragmented narrative about loss, transformation, and the strange beauty of trying to remember who you were—before everything changed. Directed by Andreas Nordblom

Hummingbird

a darkly satirical short film set in the quiet, decaying aftermath of totalitarian Soviet power. Sergei, 80, once a proud enforcer of censorship, now lives alone, tethered to a wheezing oxygen machine and haunted by the silence he helped impose. When a forgotten cassette resurfaces, so does his past — and with it, a surreal unraveling of memory, guilt, and denial. A short film by Andreas Nordblom and Elin Jönsson

90 min / Comedy

Vacuumpacked

an offbeat tale of grief, failure and artistic collapse, and all the things we can’t quite let go of. Losing someone hurts. But not always. Writer and Director Andreas Nordblom.

ABOUT Hjärta NIKKI FILMPRODUCTION

Hjärta Nikki - Where Art Meets Cinematic Storytelling

Hjärta Nikki was founded out of a need to create films that resonate deeply—work that exists at the intersection of art and cinema. As a director, screenwriter, producer and artist, I navigate the space between narrative and non-narrative forms, seeking to explore the unique tension that arises when structure meets experimental expression.

In addition to developing independent arthouse films, Hjärta Nikki also works with clients on commissioned projects—offering film production services for those who want to create unique and meaningful work. Whether it’s an artistic collaboration, a conceptual piece, or a more traditional narrative film, Hjärta Nikki can serve as a full production partner from idea to finished product.

If you are an artist or filmmaker interested in working within this space—where art and film inform and enrich each other—or a producer looking for a director with a strong vision—or a commercial client in need of a unique and artful approach to film—feel free to reach out!
