The series project Jordan pitched by scriptwriter Atchy Konesh won the NOK 50,000 Special Mention, funded by Nordisk Film & TV Fond.

Jury motivation:

“This story about passion and love brings much needed hope especially to the younger generations. We are thrilled by the main character and his inner dilemma when balancing between his own expectations on himself and his passions of two very different kinds. The jury members appreciate the creator’s clear motivation to challenge stereotypical narratives. The jury was already impressed by how the creator, in his graduation film was capable of dealing with young people’s tough experiences with sensitivity and from their own point of views. The rewarded series could possibly be life-changing for young audiences.”
