Karl-Axel "Kalle" Boman (born 5 April 1943) is a Swedish film producer based in Gothenburg who has been involved in many works in Swedish cinema for over 50 years.[1][2]
Raised in Södermalm, he was exposed to a theatre school as a boy through a friend, and had a small role in Ingmar Bergman's 1949 film Prison.[1] As a producer, Boman established his studio in Stockholm, but seeking more space, relocated it to Norrsundet.[1]
In 2014, he received the Guldbagge Honorary Award.[1] That year, with director Ruben Östlund, Boman entered an art installation into the Vandalorum Museum in Värnamo, with the artists' statement "The Square is a sanctuary of trust and caring. Within it we all share equal rights and obligations."[3] This inspired Östlund's 2017 Palme d'Or-winning film The Square.[3]
