Sobre este título

Dr. Elin Festøy is a Norwegian creative producer, researcher, and storyteller whose work uses interactive media to illuminate some of the most painful and overlooked histories of the 20th century. After completing a Master’s degree in 1995, she began her career as a journalist covering tech during the early emergence of digital culture. She later founded the transmedia studio Teknopilot, and in 2013 began a long-running project about the Lebensborn, children born to Norwegian mothers and Nazi soldiers during the Second World War.


She co-produced the documentary Wars Don’t End, and in 2018 created the BAFTA-winning mobile game My Child Lebensborn. Last year she completed a PhD at The Norwegian Film School, where she examined the unconscious biases that shape our understanding of children born of war. Most recently, she released My Child: New Beginnings, a follow-up game that further expands this vital narrative through interactive storytelling.
