The Nordisk Film & TV Fond has teamed with the Göteborg Film Festival to launch the Nordic Series Awards, a new award to honor Nordic drama series.
The Nordic Series Award replaces the Nordisk Film & TV Fond Prize, which has been awarded annually at Göteborg’s TV Drama Vision since 2017.
The award will honor the best screenwriting in Nordic drama. Supported by Nordisk Film & TV Fond, the award includes a 200,000 NOK cash prize and will be given to the main writer(s) of a Nordic drama series that premiered in the previous year.
The two organizations have also launched the Creative Courage Award to honor the producer and commissioner behind what has been described as “a series that pushes creative boundaries and embraces bold, innovative approaches.” Both awards will be presented annually at Göteborg’s TV Drama Vision.
