Season 1 from The Bridge was a big international success. The series got nominated for a BAFTA Award for best international series and an Amùerican-Mexican and British-French remake was made.
In the Benelux the first season sold 95.000 times (!). This impressed the makers from Sweden and Denmark, and so Lumière became co-producent for the second season.
The iconic Øresund-bridge between Sweden and Denmark also plays a central part in the second season. An old cargo that transports oil bumps to the bridge. No one seems to be oin board apart from some Swedish and Danish youngsters who are chained. Saga Norén is charging the investment and seeks contact with Martin Rohde. It suddenly evolves in a race against the clock to avoid a disaster. Someone wants to put attention to the ecological problems and isn’t afraid to offer some blood.
The second season from The Bridge is out now on Lumière on both DVD and Blu-ray.
