Unlimited Stories AB

What Unlimited Stories AB does

Unlimited Stories AB is a privately held Swedish film and television production company founded in 2016 and headquartered in Stockholm with an additional office in Gothenburg. The company produces and co-produces content across three primary verticals: family films (the Sune franchise, Håkan Bråkan series, Knyckertz series, Kronprinsen och tyrannens återkomst), premium drama and thrillers (Vaka on Prime Video, Eagles of the Republic, Hammarskj\u00f6ld), and historical/biographical drama (the co-produced Queen Silvia for Prime Video). The company also operates a documentary, TV, and music production division called Grumpy Production, established in 2018, which handles music documentaries and concert broadcasts in partnership with Live Nation.

The business operates on a B2B co-production and licensing model. Revenue is generated through one-time licensing of produced content to distributors, broadcasters, and streaming platforms, supplemented by co-production financing partners and international sales royalties via Beta Film/Beta Nordic. Unlimited Stories funds productions through a co-production model involving the Swedish Film Institute (Svenska Filminstitutet), regional film funds (Film i V\u00e4st), and established partners including Nordisk Film and Pyjama Pictures. Distribution channels span theatrical release via cinema chains (Filmstaden), Swedish public broadcasting (SVT), and streaming platforms (Prime Video for DACH and Nordics, SAT.1 for Germany).

The company's competitive position rests on a library of established Swedish IP, recurring collaborations with high-profile talent (Tarik Saleh, Fares Fares, Jonas Karlsson), and demonstrated international festival recognition (Berlinale, TIFF, Cannes, Series Mania). Sweden's official Oscar submission for Eagles of the Republic in 2025 and six Guldbagge awards (Best Film, Best Screenplay, Best Male Lead, among others) confirm critical acclaim. The company is led by CEO Emil Wiklund since January 2024, who was appointed to professionalize commercial operations following his tenure at TV4.
