Framed as eight less than half hour episodes at the request of broadcaster, in a play for a YA audience, the techno-scored series is part-shot in period VHS, plus wide-lensing for comedy. It was a hit last year on TV2 and with the jury of the Nordisk Film & TV Fond Prize.
“The jury is thankful for the possibility to watch and read series from across the Nordic countries. We have based our evaluation on three main criteria: craft, relevance, and originality. The winner has it all. It’s based on a true universe from a certain time,” the jury announced at a prize ceremony held at the Göteborg Fest’s TV Drama Vision on Feb. 1.
“The authenticity, honesty, brutality, and friendship drive the story and engage the audience. Accuracy, details, music, it’s all in the script! The writer really owns the story,” it added. The award carries a NOK 200 000 cash prize. On paper, “Kids in Crime” was the outlier in a contest featuring “Blackwater,” a moody double period crime drama from Piv Bernth, behind “The Killing,” “The Bridge” and “Borgen”; DR ratings record buster, “Carmen Curlers,” a feel good Danish ‘60s-set drama; and Matti Kunninen’s knowing character-driven financial thriller “The Invincibles,” his follow-up to the appreciated “Cargo.
“The Tudors’” Anita Briem alos debuted as writer-creator with Glassriver-produced “As Long as We Live,” a seven year itch drama for a women with an 18-month son also struggling to have a life.
