After collaborating on Coach, the visionary filmmaker now joins our commercial roster for Scandinavian representation.
When we did Coach with Alma Har’el in Copenhagen earlier this year, we had the best time. Luckily, it seems that the feeling was mutual, and we are now proud to include her in our Scandinavian commercial roster.

“We have admired Alma’s work for a long time, and working together earlier this year, we felt a kinship in our approach to filmmaking and ambition to create,” says Bacon COO Samuel Cantor
“Let’s bring in the Bacon! I couldn’t be happier to join them in Scandinavia. Filming the Coach spot together was one of the smoothest days I’ve ever had on set, and I look forward to keeping it going with style, humor, and heart. I’ve long admired the fearless, inventive spirit that runs through all their work. Skål!” says Alma Har’el.
Alma Har’el’s work and accolades speak for themselves. Her commercial reel is packed with beautiful spots for clients like Airbnb and P&G and her narrative work includes projects like the 2019 feature Honey Boy and the highly acclaimed new Apple TV+ thriller series Lady in the Lake starring Academy Award winner Natalie Portman. She has won Sundance’s Special Jury Prize for Vision and Craft as well as the Directors Guild of America’s Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in a First-Time Feature, and she was the first woman in DGA history to receive nominations in both commercial and narrative directing categories.
Adding: “Alma has a unique talent of giving all of her work purpose and making it truthful. You always believe the stories she tells. And you feel them. Paired with some of the great creative projects out of Scandinavia, that’s a really powerful combo.”
The move means that Alma Har’el is now available for commercial work in all of Scandinavia through our offices in Copenhagen, Stockholm and Oslo.
Beyond her directing work, Alma Har’el is the founder of
FREE THE WORK, a nonprofit organization and talent discovery platform for underrepresented creators in media, film, and advertising. The initiative has changed practices in bidding and hiring and helped create opportunities in an otherwise structurally closed industry.
