Nordisk Film
Nordisk Film A/S (lit. 'Nordic Film') is a Danish film studio owned by the Egmont Group. The multimedia entertainment company is also involved in television production, cinemas, computer games and advertising.
The film studio was established in 1906 in Valby, Copenhagen, by filmmaker Ole Olsen. It is the fourth-oldest film studio in the world behind Gaumont, Pathé, and Titanus, and the oldest studio to be continuously active. The logo consists of a polar bear standing on the globe, and currently distributes films from various companies including Lionsgate, Summit Entertainment and FilmNation Entertainment among others.
Olsen started his company in the Copenhagen suburb of Valby under the name "Ole Olsen's Film Factory," but soon changed it to the Nordisk Films Kompagnie.
In 1908, Olsen opened an affiliate branch in New York, the Great Northern Film Company, to handle the distribution of his films to the American market. In 1909, having been excluded from the MPPC cartel in the United States, which Olsen had hoped to join, Nordisk participated in the Paris Film Congress in a failed attempt by major European producers to form a similar monopoly. It became a publicly traded company in 1911 as Nordisk Film. During the 1910s, the company created popular silent films with movie stars such as Valdemar Psilander and Clara Pontoppidan.
When Germany invaded Denmark during World War II, the company was locked out of the nationalized German film industry and lost large amounts of revenue.
In 1992, it merged with the Egmont media group, operating as electronic media production and distribution group. The total revenues in 2018 amounted to approximately €559 million. Nordisk Film is one of the oldest movie production company still in operation in the world. Nordisk Film is the largest producer and distributor of electronic entertainment in the Nordic region.
The company produces and co-produces national and international feature films in Denmark, Norway and Sweden, which are distributed to cinemas around the Nordic countries, including Nordisk Film Cinemas in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The films are also distributed internationally for viewing in cinemas, on video and on television.
Furthermore, Nordisk Film produces games through a number of game studios invested in by Nordisk Film Games, distributes PlayStation in the Nordic and Baltic countries and develops global digital gifting solutions through GoGift.
