Crossing · Sweden (2024)
Levan Akin follows a retired teacher from Georgia who travels to Istanbul in search of her missing niece. What begins as a family search gradually becomes a quiet portrait of the city and of the people who inhabit its margins.

The Playlist · Sweden (2022)
The series tells the story of how a small Swedish start-up called Spotify challenged the major music labels and reshaped the way the world listens to music.
What makes it stand out is its structure. Each episode follows a different perspective: the ambitious founder, the industry executive, the lawyer, the programmer and the artist. There is no single version of events.
It moves quickly and feels very current, showing how a group of entrepreneurs in Sweden managed to build one of the few global tech companies born on our continent.
