Conceived on a sailing boat in the Aegean Sea, Axel Joachim Jensen was born in January 1960 in Oslo, Norway to the infamous Norwegian writer Axel Jensen who left his mother Marianne for another woman that spring. A new father figure enters his life. That man is Leonard Cohen.

2022 marks the 30th anniversary of the Raindance Film Festival, the UK’s leading indie film festival, and this year’s edition will be a celebration of 30 years of independent film in the UK. Running 26 October – 5 November, Raindance will revisit some of the most pivotal films from its archive in a series of special screenings. Raindance will also look towards the next 30 years with a programme of fresh, relevant, and radical world premieres as well as a selection of must-see titles cherry-picked from the international film festival circuit.
