Beach at the End of the Party

Marcus Ibanez has a cinematic style that is as intimate as it is ambitious. With a background in photography and design, the Swedish director’s approach to storytelling is instinctive yet precise, finding a delicate balance between warmth and restraint. 

Marcus defined his craft while working alongside directors like Jérôme Salle and Gustav Johansson. His 2024 film "Moments That Never Happen" for the Volvo EX90, shot by Oscar-winning cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema, imagines a woman's entire future in one vital second. A poignant meditation on the moments that define a life, the film went on to win at Cannes Lions that year.
