When film students Ilja Wallin and Lise Bodin Haldorsen set out to make their exam film, they never imagined it would be selected for a film festival. Since then, it has been screened at both Amandus Blikkfang and the Zambia Film Festival.

Simon Nilsen (25) won the award for the best short film at the New York City International Films Infest Festival in October. He produced the winning film, "Havets sang" (Song of the Sea), while studying at Noroff.

The former Noroff student's film has won twelve awards at film festivals around the world. Now it's ready for the streaming service Amazon Prime.

Noroff student's film began production in August of this year, with assistance from the production company Rollo Tomasi.
