“A Copenhagen Love Story” is a Netflix romantic movie starring Rosalinde Mynster and Joachim Fjelstrup. It is based on the novel by Tine Høeg.

“A Copenhagen Love Story” is a moving exploration of the complexities of modern love and fertility challenges. Based on Tine Høeg’s novel, the series follows the story of Emil, a single father, and Mia, a writer, as they navigate the turbulent waters of building a life together while trying to have a child.

“A Copenhagen Love Story” takes us into a realistic yet intimate cinematic composition. The film attempts to sidestep cinematic stylizations to delve into the couple’s psychology, placing the narrative emphasis on the script rather than aesthetic aspects: a realistic approach that puts characters above aesthetics.

Directed by the creative trio of Ditte Hansen, Louise Mieritz, and Jenny Mattesen, the film addresses the dynamics of blended families and the obstacles couples face...

Netflix has unveiled three new Nordic originals as part of its 2025 slate, including the Swedish crime series “Synden,” the Danish fertility dramedy “Sult,” and season 3 of Norwegian romantic comedy series “Home for Christmas,” confirming its ambition to keep investing in Scandinavian content.

The Nordic market has gone through a rough patch in the last few years after the fallout of negotiations between the Danish producers guild and streamers; and the major restructuring at Viaplay which has put the brakes on local originals and is now partly owned by France’s Canal+.

All three Nordic originals greenlighted by Netflix are backed by renowned creatives and producers.

“Synden” is written and directed by Peter Grönlund whose credits include “Goliat” and “Beartown.” The series follows the perpetually angry, odd but highly intelligent investigator Dani (Krista Kosonen) who is teamed up with newly graduated police colleague Malik (Mohammed Nour Oklah) to investigate the murder...

Netflix is going deeper into the Nordics with the launch of a trio of originals — including the return of romantic drama series Home For Christmas.

The streamer unveiled the titles at the opening of a new office in Stockholm. Netflix has had a base in the Swedish capital since 2021, but is moving into a new space this week.

Marking the move are Swedish drama Synden, Danish feature film Sult and Home For Christmas, which will return more than three years after season two dropped. All three will launch in 2025.

Home For Christmas Season 3 will see Ida Elise Broch returning to star as Johanne, who is now 35 and now single after a recent break up. While helping her siblings, taking care of her lonely father and landing a leadership role at work, she throws herself back into the dating scene but realises it is not what it used to be.

Writers are Siri Seljeseth,...

Flame (Thure Lindhardt) and Citron’s (Mads Mikkelsen) moral compasses are spinning out of control as they go on a strategic killing spree of Danes who are collaborating with Nazis occupiers, then straight for the jugular of the Nazis themselves. Citron begins the film as a family man; he is Flame’s sidekick, but he is literally just along for the drive (a stressful job nonetheless causing him to sweat profusely, drink heavily and gulp down pills to quell his nerves). However, it is not long before the lunacy of war takes hold of Citron and never ever lets him go. Even Flame, who is an unwavering killing...
