In Stockholm, Magnus Von Horn worked on distributing a
variety of films for Sonet
and as an assistant script reader and as a light and camera
assistant.
Magnus then left the Swedish film industry to pursue
his film directing dreams at the Polish National
Film, Television and Theatre School.
He has produced several short films in Poland including the
documentary short Radek

what results in the process.
Echo has received numerous awards, including
the Best Film Award at Munich International Festival of Film Schools, the
Grand Prix at the Open Student
Film Festival in St. Petersburg, and is a finalist in the
renowned Manhattan Short Film Festival.
