At the 44th Göteborg Film Festival, and on the first day of its TV Drama Vision industry strand, the Danish TV series Cry Wolf emerged as the winner of the Nordisk Film & TV Fond Prize, given out for the fifth time in a row. The award, worth NOK 200,000 (€19,350), was bestowed upon writer Maja Jul Larsen for “outstanding writing of a Nordic drama series” during the online ceremony.

and Norway’s Welcome to Utmark.

The jury statement reads: “We are immersed in a time when we are being bombarded with content, so we looked for a unique story. This one was super-smart, super-intelligent and had complex characters – who seem normal and dysfunctional at the same time. There is no black and white in this show. The characters contain both good and evil. The series pilot tells the story but leaves you with so much unanswered that you want to watch the rest. It questions you as a viewer. What should you believe? You both love and hate each character. We believe them all, but they can’t all be telling the truth. It is complicated but gripping, and this is why we have television!”

Cry Wolf tells the intense and emotional story of a teenage girl who has written a vivid school essay detailing her stepfather’s violent behaviour. The parents deny the accusations, but who is lying – and who is telling the truth?
