Timeline
2014 Bergsmark received the Mai Zetterling-scholarship, a scholarship for movie directors working with short movies or documentaries. The scholarship was handed out at the Gothenburg Film Festival on the January 24 that year.
Bergsmark received another Guldbagge Award nomination for best documentary 2012 for the movie She Male Snails. The movie was made in collaboration with Swedish author Eli Levén. Bergsmark and Levén had previously been in a relationship that ended a couple of months before the filming of She Male Snails begun. The movie protests against the binary gender system that consists of women and men and begins with Bergsmark talking about the first time they saw Levén as a teenager and the fact that Levén dared being something beyond boy or girl. In interviews Bergsmark has said that while not wanting to live as a woman they consider themself a trans person and find security in not having to have a static gender identity. The movie is a mix of documentary and fiction and received financial support for feature movies.
In the fall of 2011 Bergsmark and Levén moved to Berlin and worked together in a mutual office on the manuscript to Bergsmark's film Something Must Break. Something Must Break (2014) opened the Gothenburg Film Festival 2014 and was nominated for a Dragon Award for Best Nordic picture. The movie is based on a book by Levén (Swedish title: Du är rötterna som sover vid mina fötter och håller jorden på plats). Just like She Male Snails Something Must Break deals with the topic of belonging somewhere in between what is considered being male and what is considered being female. It also circles around young love and beginning to accept yourself.
2009 Bergsmark took part in a feminist project in which several directors and artists directed short movies for a collection called Dirty Diaries. The collection was made with the aim to rethink pornography and consists of 12 shorts and Bergsmark's segment is called Fruitcake. 2009 was also the year Bergsmark got the legal right to change their first name to Ester. Before it had not been possible as the previous name law in Sweden had denied people from adding or changing their name to one from another legal gender.
