Previously, on March 17, 2026, at CPH:DOX, the NFI collaborated with the Danish, Swedish, Icelandic, and Finnish Film Institutes, alongside Nordic public broadcasters SVT, NRK, DR, Yle, and RÚV, to launch a joint call for documentary projects aimed at supporting high-quality non-fiction development. Earlier, on February 3, 2026, NFI announced its new strategy plan, highlighting the strong global impact and "clear identity" of Norwegian films, series, and games. This followed the November 30, 2025 announcement that Portugal's Fantasporto International Film Festival would present a unique retrospective dedicated to Norwegian cinema from February 28 to March 9, 2026.
