Alicia Vikander is partnering with Göteborg Film Festival to launch an educational film program for young people in Sweden. The Alicia Vikander Film Lab aims to give young people the tools to express themselves through filmmaking, and to increase diversity in the film industry. Vikander has helped to design the project and each year will join a workshop with the students. The actress announced the initiative while being appointed an honorary fellow by the Sten A Olsson Foundation for Research and Culture. She is donating the prize money from that award to the lab, as well as making a private donation. “I am so honored to receive the Stena Foundation fellowship. Having the chance to collaborate with Göteborg Film Festival on the Film Lab, to inspire young people and create opportunity for them to explore the world of film is something I am hugely excited about”, Alicia Vikander said.
