Tornseglare (“Swifts”), 2026

I play Angelo in Swifts (Original Swedish title “Tornseglare”), a moving short about a homeless man who finds comfort in letting his life be governed by strict routines. He enjoys observing everything and everyone, and his otherwise predictable existence becomes far more exciting when he begins following Angelo, an important man with an apparently well-ordered life who is equally devoted to his own daily rituals.

Day after day, Bo tries to get closer, and a series of unexpected encounters gradually transforms their everyday lives, revealing just how closely two seemingly very different lives can come together.

Swift tells the story of the human need for connection and of forbidden relationships within a class society that erects invisible barriers between those who long most to meet.

Miles’ Story

The son of a jazz trombonist and a dancer-turned-businesswoman, I probably should have seen this coming.
Instead, I spent more than two decades building a business before deciding—just as I approached 50—that it was time to become a story teller… well, an actor! A fresh face with new ideas. Ok, an experienced face with some idea!
Anyway, I am putting my all into this and have already landed several roles in film and television. I'm endlessly curious, easy to direct, and committed to bringing authenticity, energy and a collaborative spirit to every project I'm fortunate enough to be part of.
