A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Aarhus, Denmark
Born in 1990 in Aarhus. Since 2014, Sidsel has worked as film director Joshua Oppenheimer and producer Signe Byrge Sørensen’s assistant at the production company Final Cut for Real and University of Westminster in London. Besides working with Joshua Oppenheimer on his documentary projects and upcoming fiction musical film, Sidsel is part of his research project at Westminster, Documentary of the Imagination, where she helps develop and define the self-staging methods Joshua established with his two previous films, The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence. Having a background in Anthropology from the University of Copenhagen, Sidsel emphasises careful representation and thorough research of the topics her projects deal with, whether they are fiction or documentary. As a producer, she especially loves being creatively engaged in her projects.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
