ZDFE Boards Crime Series Kristina Ohlsson’s STHLM Requiem

ZDF Enterprises is working with ZDF to co-produce the Swedish-German crime series Kristina Ohlsson’s STHLM Requiem, which it will also distribute.

The basis for the series is Kristina Ohlsson’s bestsellers about criminologist and investigator Frederika Bergmann. The lead role of the ten-part crime series is played by Liv Mjönes (The Fat and the Angry, Agent Hamilton).

The screenwriters of the Nordic noir series are Jörgen Hjerdt and Pauline Wolff. Conceptual management was handled by Karin Fahlén, who took care of mise-en-scène together with fellow director Lisa Ohlin.

The series is a production of Black Spark Film & TV/Kärnfilm in co-production with ZDF, ZDF Enterprises, C More, TV4 and Nice Drama, Chimney Pot and Lunanime (produced by Piodor Gustafsson, Martina Stöhr and Petra Jönsson). The first five episodes are due to be aired in 2019, running in ZDF’s slot for international co-productions on Sunday evenings at 10 p.m. The series will also premiere on TV4 and C More in Sweden.
