Mimmi Spång

[2] She graduated from the Stockholm Academy of Dramatic Arts (SADA) in 2001 (previously known as University College of Film, Radio, Television and Theatre).

[4] Spång stated in an interview that she found her time at Memfis to be extremely enlightening, but that she felt that she wanted to work as a producer.

[3] Spång became one of the co-owners of Garagefilm together with founders Malte Forsell and Håkan Lindhé, and her longtime producer partner, Rebecka Lafrenz.

Call Girl was critiqued for insinuating that one of Sweden's previous prime ministers, Olof Palme, participated in purchasing sexual favors from minors.

The director and writers' attempt to explain that everything in the film was purely fiction was rejected as cowardly by Swedish newspaper SvD head of culture, Mårten Jönsson.

The Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter (Daily News) later reported that the organization of this festival in part was an attempt to sell military aircraft.

[10][clarification needed] Spång's career got off to a solid start when her graduation-project Viktor and his Brothers won the Swedish Guldbagge Award for Best Short Film in 2002.

Spångs company Garagefilm International produced Amateurs and won GIFF 2018, Dragon Award för Best Nordic film.
