LETTERS TO A YOUNG SINGER
a film by Lena Måndotter

"The film LETTERS TO A YOUNG SINGER clearly shows Lena Måndotter’s deep understanding of the connection between song and psyche and the body-soul work. Lena is a singer, song-therapist, writer and film-maker and the depth of the movie is shown in the original and convincing way she uses the images! People who watch this movie will be moved at a deep level and even if they don’t understand everything with their heads; their bodies will definitely understand”
MARION WOODMAN, Jungian analyst based in London/Ontario, Canada, and internationally known writer, lecturer and seminar-leader.

”Letters to a Young Singer is a brave film about the worlds of song
and myth. I have deep respect for her creativity and professionality as a filmer, and as a producer, because the production is also very beautiful. I really hope she continues filming!”
HENRIK VON SYDOW,
SVT ­ Swedish National Television/Broadcasting.
