Danish sales agency TrustNordisk confirms that they have secured international sales rights for the upcoming Norwegian film ‘Team Havnaa‘ (working title) by director and screenwriter Bård Breien (‘The Art of Negative Thinking’, ‘In the Name of Love’).
‘Team Havnaa’ is a boxing drama based on the true story of the Havnaa brothers‘ quest for glory, seeking to secure the first Norwegian world champion title in boxing. Teaming up as a boxer and manager, their dramatic journey also includes participation in the largest heist in Norwegian history.
The script is penned by Breien, Eske Troelstrup, and Ravn Lanesskog, and the film stars Norwegian actor Tobias Santelmann (‘The Last Kingdom’, ‘Kon-Tiki’, ‘Exit’, ‘Beforeigners’) as the older brother and manager Erling Havnaa, and talented Odin Waage (‘Rod Knock’, ‘Eyewitness’) as the young boxer Magne Havnaa. The Norwegian production company Maipo Film (‘The Art of Negative Thinking’, ‘State of Happiness’) is the producer of ‘Team Havnaa’.
For me, this is a fascinating story of two brothers who were very intertwined with each other all their lives but ended up in very different history books. And with Bård Breien as the storyteller, I knew it would have a very unique approach with a great love for the characters.
Synnøve Hørsdal, Producer Maipo Film
‘Team Havnaa’ is expected to be released in Norway in December 2024.
