Mads K. Baekkevold
Mads K. Baekkevold is a Norwegian filmmaker. His film career started in Singapore, where he spent close to a decade in the Southeast Asian film industry. A position as a senior creative at Media.Monks set him on the move again, this time to the cobblestone fairytale city of Amsterdam. Never content with staying put, he's currently located in the Pacific Northwest of Vancouver, BC from his X-Files and Twin Peaks-loving childhood. Constantly being on the move has instilled a sense of curiosity in Mads, both as a filmmaker and as a person. Curiosity for people, for their stories, for their customs and rituals and folklore. Besides his considerable success working as a Cannes Lions-awarded commercial director, this curiosity has led him to projects such as Still Space (a documentary on the art scene of Macau), his award-winning short film Chamber of Ox (an anthology series instalment exploring the concept of hell in Buddhism), a series of four short pan-Asian horror films for Universal Studios - and many more. His debut feature The Chef & The Daruma premiered at VIFF in 2024.
