Immersed in forests, as Sweden happily remains, in the Summer and Fall the young Astrid loved roaming, lying upon the giving Earth and drawing apples upon large sheets of drafting paper (both her parents being architects).
In 1998 she played the part of Astrid in the English production Still Crazy, followed by Colin Nutley's Oscar-nominated Under the Sun - a film that also received the Special Jury Prize at the San Sebastian Film Festival.
