Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent“Midsommar” producer Patrik Andersson from B-Reel Films and Jakob Abrahamsson, a distribution veteran from NonStop Entertainment, have joined forces to launch Mylla Films, a Scandinavian genre film and TV production company.Aiming to nurture local talent and stories, and folklore and myths for an international audience, the banner is bowing at Cannes with a strong slate comprising of “Devastation,” Sweden’s first gothic Western, and “Hoin,” a conspiracy thriller based on a hit Swedish podcast and penned by Jerker Virdborg (Netflix’s “Black Crab”).“Devastation” revolves around two brothers who keep a town under a tyrannical stronghold during the never-ending winter and plague of 1867.
An uprising begins from the most unexpected place. “Hoin,” meanwhile, is a thriller based on Andreas Ericson’s popular podcast of the same name.
Virdborg penned the movie, which Andersson described as a “‘Chinatown’ meets ‘The Ring.'” The story follows a journalist who travels to the barren archipelago of Stockholm, where food is scarce, military powers are at the doorsteps, and locals believe in an evil legend.Mylla is also developing “The Aquanauts,” an ambitious eco sci-fi series about two female scientists looking for a new and potentially dangerous human species in the depths of the valley of Lake Siljan in Dalarna, Sweden.The series, which Andersson and Abrahamsson are describing as a botanic sci-fi drama, is based on an IP created by the prominent artist Pompe Hedengren, who’s behind several high-profile exhibitions and shows.
