Career
As a child, Brisinger spent a great time in England, picking up a fascination with moving pictures. He discovered still photography and 8 millimeter film, and began making elaborate home movies while still in grade school. After graduating with a Bachelor"s degree from University of Southern California in 1989, Brisinger worked as an assistant editor at Warner Brothers.
Wanting to make a leap to directing, he took his student reel and an independently produced short film back home to Stockholm where he began directing commercials and music videos.
At the Chicago International Children"s Film Festival, it came in second in the adult live action category. In 2006 Brisinger made his debut as a feature film writer and director with the drama Suddenly (Underbara älskade), starring Michael Nyqvist and Anastasious Soulis.
The film premiered in Sweden in December 2006, and received favourable reviews from major Swedish film critics. His second feature, Among Us (Änglavakt), starring Nyqvist, Izabella Scorupco and Tchéky Karyo was released in Sweden in March 2010.
