Nordisk Film and ZENTROPA
In the beginning of 2008, Nordisk Film has acquired 50% of the shares in Zentropa Folket Aps. Nordisk Film’s involvement in Zentropa means an infusion of capital; the funds are intended for an increase in international productions. At the same time, the cooperation means optimizing the use of production facilities owned by the two companies in various countries.
Measured in movies per year, both Nordisk Film and Zentropa are among the leading European movie producers. Together, Nordisk Film and Zentropa will also be among the biggest in Europe measured in movie budgets.
