Writer and director Henrik Björn has a long-standing career in the film and TV industry. He has a passion for genre and exciting world building - and for telling gripping stories with a deeper message that can travel the globe. Already in his early twenties Björn co-founded the successful production company Palladium in Stockholm, then fore-mostly working with commercials. As a commercial director he has made more than 500 commercials with clients such as Sony Ericsson, Premier League, Peugeot, Viasat, TV4, Amnesty International and the UN. Whilst working as a commercial director he felt increasingly drawn to creating stories for bigger formats, and an idea for a TV series started to grow. The following years this idea evolved into the incredibly successful crime fantasy drama Jordskott (2015-2017) for which he was creator, show runner, head writer and conceptual director. Jordskott, starring Moa Gammel, was a mega hit among viewers and critics alike, and attracted significant international interest even before its premiere, including at the Berlin Film Festival in 2015. Jordskott has been sold to over 160 countries to date. It was awarded with a Swedish Emmy - a Kristallen Award - for 'Best TV Drama' and the Banff Rockie Award for 'Best Serial Drama'. 2021 saw the premiere of his audio drama Djupet/The Deep, starring Alba August, Peter Andersson and Stina Ekblad. The series, which he wrote and directed, was a great success for commissioner SR. It was nominated at the Swedish Radio Academy's Golden Ear Awards in the prestigious 'Best Pod Production' and at New York Festivals Radio Awards for 'Drama podcast of the Year'. In 2022 he wrote and directed the audio novel Ragna starring Gizem Erdogan for Spotify in collaboration with Planethon and the UN. Ragna reached #1 on the Spotify drama pod chart, both in Sweden and UK and was nominated in "Venture or the Year", the award that honors outstanding initiatives within sustainable communication by Sustainable Brand Index(TM) Björn is co-creator, director and writer, together with Felix Herngren, of the thriller series Jana - Marked For Life, which premiered on Prime Video in 2024 to great reviews.
