‘Trom’ Creator Launches UK Indie With Nordic Noir Project Set In London’s Canary Wharf

'Trom's Torfinnur Jákupsson has opened Red Herring Story in UK - an affiliate of his Faroe Islands' Gro Studios

Historically, the ‘roykstova’ was the communal heart of the home, where people gathered to spin yarn and tell stories for both entertainment and survival.

Red Herring Story aims to bridge the Nordic storytelling tradition of atmospheric investigative thrillers with the sharp, dynamic intensity of British drama.
