  • Jens Lien is a Norwegian film director. He graduated from the London International Film School in 1993. His graduation project was the short film "Montana", that was featured at the short film festival in Grimstad that year. in 1995 he again participated in this festival, with the entry "Mitt elektriske kjøkken" (My Electrical Kitchen). Lien went on to make the short films "Døren som ikke smakk" (Shut the Door, 2000) og "Naturlige Briller" (Natural Glasses, 2001). Both of these films were based on scripts by Per Schreiner, and both were featured at the Cannes International Film Festival. In addition to this Lier has also made a number of advertisements. In 2003 he had his feature film debut with the movie Jonny Vang. The movie was awarded an Amanda Award for "Best Actor" in 2003. It was also nominated in the category "Best Film", but lost out to Bent Hamer's Salmer fra kjøkkenet. Lien's next major film project was Den brysomme mannen (2006). This film was again the result of a cooperation with Per Schreiner; it was based on a story originally written for radio theatre, recorded two years before it was adapted for the screen. Lien later said in an interview that the script made such a great impression on him that he was unable to sleep after first reading it. The film was awarded three Amandas in 2006: for "Best Direction", "Best Screenplay" and "Best Actor". It was also nominated in the categories "Best Film" and "Best Actress" (Petronella Barker). Den brysomme mannen also won several international awards, including the ACID Award (Agence du Cinéma Indépendant pour sa Diffusion) at the Cannes Film Festival.
