Russia ‘invades Norway’ in new Scandinavian TV series
21 Aug, 2015 RTNews
Norway’s most expensive television series, which will describe a Russian invasion into the country, is to premiere in September. Moscow described the choice of the storyline as an ‘unfortunate’ decision.
However, the Russians aren’t the only baddies in the show, as the occupation of Norway is performed on behalf of the European Union.
According to the plot, the international players intervene into the country in order to restore oil and gas production, which was halted after a radical environmentalist party won the Norwegian election, The Local reports.
The Russian forces in the show perform the so-called ‘soft occupation’ of the Scandinavian state, only controlling the oil fields and allowing the citizens to go on with their everyday life.
Earlier this week, the county’s largest commercial broadcaster, TV2, released a trailer for the ‘Okkupert’ (Occupied) series, set to premiere on September 27.
The production of the 10-episode show cost 90 million kroner (nearly $11 million), making it Norway’s most expensive television project so far.
