Sveriges Television TV-Drama / Director: Birger Larsen

For this 4 part TV mini-series based on Henning Mankells novel The 5th Woman we built a huge, beat-up Police HQ set in the former Kockums Shipyard in Malmö, Sweden.

We wanted to create a different vision of a police force manned by people under personal pressure, and were interested in seeing the rusty post-industrial reality beneath the shiny surface of contemporary Sweden.

We developed a special scenic technique to create a stucco lustro effect on the shiny, lively wall textures in a fast and easy way. All the wood trim was stained with Soy sauce. Sustainable ?
