TrustNordisk has boarded sales for survival drama Breaking Surface, which writer/director Joachim Hedén is shooting now.

Moa Gammel and Madeleine Martin star in the story of Swedish/Norwegian half sisters who go on a winter diving trip in Northern Norway, when they get trapped after a rockslide.

Breaking Surface is shooting at Lites studios Flanders just outside of Brussels, Belgium, at the world’s deepest water tank; it is the first film to shoot there.

After Belgium, the film will shoot in Strömstad, Sweden; Lofoten, Norway; and Göteborg, Sweden. It wraps in mid-March.

Julia Gebauer and Jonas Sörensson produce for Sweden’s Way Creative Films with co-producers Film i Väst, SVT, Film i Skåne, Umedia, Filmfond Nord and Screen Flanders.

Nordisk Film will distribute in Scandinavia with the theatrical launch planned for the end of 2019.

Silje Nikoline Glimsdal, sales & project manager at TrustNordisk, said, “We are thrilled to be able to present Breaking Surface in our EFM 2019 line-up. This is a classic race-against-the-clock story set in spectacular underwater surroundings.”

Hedén’s past features are 10.000 Timmar, Framily and New York Waiting.
