‘Lilyhammer’-Like Drama ‘Torna A Surriento’ Boarded By Siminn Ahead Of Series Mania Bow
Iceland's Siminn has boarded 'Torna a Surriento', a European co-production for Finland's YLE and Italy's RAI debuting next week at Series Mania.
Torna a Surriento will be previewed at Series Mania in Lille, France next week as part of the first Coming Next From Sweden and Finland showcase on Tuesday morning (March 25) in the Grand Palais. Other shows in the spotlight at the pitch will include TV4 and ZDF Swedish-German crime thriller Till Death Do Us Part, SVT mystery drama My Brother and Media Res Studio’s Summer of 1985. Kaarlela admitted buyers could make the comparison with Lillehammer, the NRK drama from Norway that became Netflix’s first international acquisition back in October 2011, given the show follows a fish-out-of-water hustler in snowy Scandinavian surroundings.
