What Novemberfilm does

Novemberfilm is a Norwegian documentary and factual entertainment production company founded in 2004 and headquartered at Frøyas gate 15, Oslo, where it operates as one of three production labels under parent Strix (also known as Bergehus AS), alongside Strix (reality TV) and Rakett (entertainment formats). The label specializes exclusively in documentary series and factual programming, with a portfolio that includes 'Leo og de farlige', 'Norge bak fasaden', 'Tina - Jakten på en drapsmann', 'Politi', 'Toll', 'Mysteriet Marianne', 'Oljebarna', 'Søsken', 'Hundepatruljen', 'Insider fem', and 'Oslo brenner' — primarily aired on Norwegian broadcasters such as Viasat 4.

The company's core technology is documentary and factual entertainment production — a craft-driven capability rather than a software platform. It monetizes through content licensing and production fees negotiated per project with TV broadcasters and streaming platforms. Its go-to-market is sales-led, pitching directly to commissioning editors at Norwegian networks and international streamers. Recent commercial moves include a strategic co-production with Netflix for 'Norway: The Dark Horse' (global release June 9, 2026) and a partnership with Indira Motion Pictures to present the Gujarati film 'DHARPAKAD' through a November Films India entity, signaling initial international expansion beyond the Nordic market. Leadership includes Label Manager Kjetil Johnsen and Development Producer Vidar Amundsen, operating under group CEO Jørgen Hermansen.
