As a young lad growing up in the west-norwegian countryside he found himself baffled by the cinema. At the age of 9 years old he and his buddy set out on a quest to make their first movie. Since then Alexander has chased the dream of becoming a movie director. At the age of 15 he entered the first media school where he learned to both write, direct and shoot movies. At the age of 18-19 he set sail for England, with still an aching heart for chasing the dream.
