  • Ragnar Bragason is an Icelandic film director, screenwriter and producer. He is best known for his films Börn (Children) and Foreldrar (Parents) and the popular TV series Næturvaktin (The Night Shift) and Dagvaktin (The Day Shift). Ragnar grew up in the village of Súðavik, in a family of fishermen and farmers. He got his start making short videos in college. After directing a large number of music videos, shorts and documentaries, he released his first feature-film Fíaskó (Fiasco) in 2000. In his earlier work he used traditional ways of writing and directing, but more recently Ragnar has followed methods similar to those of Mike Leigh and John Cassavetes of working with his actors to create characters and screenplays through improvisation. His work has been nominated thirty two times for the Icelandic Edda Awards, and has received the awards fifteen times. Fíaskó was awarded Special Jury Prize at the Cairo International Film Festival in 2000. With the film Börn he won the Golden Swan for best film at Copenhagen International Film Festival in 2007 and the award for Best Direction at the Transilvania International Film Festival in 2007.
