ABOUT
Alba Åhlander (24) is a young Swedish project manager, film maker and digital creator based in Stockholm, Sweden. She also holds lectures about youth’s impact and role in the society.
She started her digital experience making short films for primary school projects and short films on her own. One of the most appreciated films was a made up commercial she made for “Super socks”, when having shoes that are too big. Further on she was given the responsibility to arrange Instagram content and design Wordpress webpages for non profit organisations. In 2018 she made Instagram content for the European Union about travelling.
During high school and after graduation Alba has been active lecturing about youth’s value in the society with youth groups, politicians and companies.
In 2019 Alba moved as a 19 year old to Sydney, Australia to study film production at Sydney Film School. In Australia she was active both in school projects and voluntary work.
Alba has since then been active with her own photo exhibit, project assignments, working on film sets and lately moved as 21 year old to Canada to combine her project management skills with her passion for storytelling.

“Alba Åhlander brings together perseverance, the ability to learn anything and a strong moral compass. Time and again in her time at Sydney Film School, she took on leadership roles, often in support of the projects of other students. She did not limit herself to exploring one or two facets of filmmaking, but explored them all. She also has that rare gift that few film students bring to the table - a natural entrepreneurial instinct. To me this is present in her awareness of the audience for her work, and also in the way she pursued her train station photography project with a commercial outcome built in. She would be an asset to any endeavour.”
