N12 – Nordic Drama

The Nordic public service media companies DR, NRK, RUV, SVT and YLE are renowned worldwide for their outstanding Nordic drama productions. High quality drama, built on strong public service ambitions, has become one of our distinguishing trademarks.

The Nordvision partners have built a stronger public service drama portfolio together. This means an increased volume of Nordic drama, available on demand as well as on linear TV, and better publishing rights of one year for the members of the Nordic partnership.

The cooperation ensures a continuous offering of unique and strong drama for the Nordic audience, reflecting local culture and identity. The initiative is called Nordic Twelve (N12). N12 is a yearly offering of 12 Nordic drama series.

Since the introduction of the Nordic 12 collaboration in 2018, the Nordic public service media companies have co-produced more than 60 drama series. This catalog, the fifth edition published by Nordvision, showcases the next 30 Nordic drama series to be launched in the next three years.

The Nordic partners also co-produce drama for the young adult audience, while the collaboration on children’s content results in about 14 drama series each year.
