Here comes a fantastic addition to the archives – one I did not think we’d ever see. In 2001, Noomi co-starred in a three-part miniseries called “Pusselbitar”, which marked her second on-screen appearance after the soap opera “Tre Kronor” in the late 1990s. “Pusselbitar” (meaning “puzzle pieces”) is an ensemble drama about the Swedish Hallberg family and their changing love lives. Their son, Joel, meets the girl of his dreams – a 21-year old Noomi Norén, still going by her birth name. But as so often, life has other plans for Joel. Noomi appeared in all three episodes of the series, although her scenes are rather brief. If you want to learn more about the series, have a look at the career pages with an episode guide. Screencaptures can be found in the photo gallery. Enjoy your weekend.

We’ve been reporting on “Hearts of Stone” for a while now. The short film, shot in 2021, made the festival rounds earlier this year and is qualified for Oscar consideration by winning Best International at the L.A. Shorts International Film Festival and the Grand Prize for Best Live Action Short at the Rhode Island International Film Festival. The film’s director Tom Van Avermaet has now released a first trailer for the film. Screencaptures have been added to the photo gallery. The official synopsis is below.

In a sculpture park in the heart of a bustling metropolis, Paula, a lonely street artist, entertains people as a living statue. She longs with an impossible love for Agatha, a stone sculpture next to her regular spot. When a festival for living statues arrives in the park, Paula is dismayed to find that Agatha has been replaced by a new, modern sculpture. After a frantic search, she finds Agatha in a group of discarded statues, ready to be taken away. Almost as a farewell, she kisses the object of her affection. Later, at the festival’s closing party, Paula meets Agatha in the flesh.
