Alongside co-director Folkert Verdoorn, Simon shares how the team turned a strange one-line concept into a massive practical shoot involving glaciers, handmade sleds, puppeteered snow creatures, and brutal conditions across Iceland. They get into worldbuilding, production design, collaboration, and the challenge of balancing emotional storytelling with a playful, cinematic visual style.
