The Nordic film industry is taking its first steps to limit the economic damage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the last week, Finnish, Norwegian and Danish cinemas have been shut down, while limitations on public gatherings in Iceland and Sweden have forced them to either close or adapt to ensure viewers’ safety and provide enough “social distancing”. In addition, current projects in production have ground to a halt, and the financial stability of many outfits (especially SMEs) is at serious risk.
