Director Fenar Ahmad joins Furlined for US and UK commercial representation.
Fenar wrote and directed the feature film, “Darkland,” which released earlier this year to critical acclaim and subsequently shortlisted for the Academy Awards in Best Foreign Film. “Darkland” is Fenar’s second feature; he has directed documentaries, short films, music videos and commercials for brands such as Reebok and Pepsi.
“Fenar weaves together gripping performances and dramatic action seamlessly, creating emotional tension and gut-wrenching anticipation,” says Diane McArter, Founder and President of Furlined. “He is a cinematic storyteller balancing the dynamic and deeply human.”
His incredible range as a filmmaker is evidenced by his next project “Valhalla,” a children’s tale rooted in Nordic mythology.
"Fenar is an exciting addition to Furlined,” says Olly Chapman, Managing Director Furlined UK. “He's a natural filmmaker - stylistically diverse, with the great ability to combine hard-nosed realism with superb performances and film craft."
Fenar divides his time between Denmark and LA. He is represented Furlined in the US and UK, and by Bacon in Denmark.
