Lead author Maja Jul Larsen and producer Claudia Saginario sent, among other things, a thank you to the placed girl who had inspired them to the story and the Holly character, as well as to the parents and the social workers who have shared their stories of fateful cases.
“The Wolf is Coming” also garnered all the actor awards in the TV series categories.
And that pleases Maja Jul Larsen.
– They (the actors, ed.) Have conjured up the material and lifted it higher than one dared dream of, she says.
This is the first time Maja Jul Larsen is the main author of a DR drama series. She has previously written the script for “The Heirs” and “Deception”.
– I’m so proud, and it’s great that people have followed the series like that. We knew it was a brave choice to make a series about forced placement, she says.
The young star sprout Flora Ofelia Hofmann Lindahl was rewarded for her performance as Holly with a Robert in front of an experienced field by, among others, veteran Karen-Lise Mynster and the experienced, award-winning actress Lene Maria Christensen.
At 15 years old, Flora Ofelia Hofmann Lindahl is the youngest person to ever win that award.
And it is fully deserved, it sounds from the screenwriter behind the series.
– She is a natural talent, and I think she can become one of our greatest actresses ever here at home, says Maja Jul Larsen.
Bjarne Henriksen, who plays the social worker Lars in the series, won in the category Male Leading Role of the Year in a TV series.
In the supporting roles, Peter Plaugborg and Christine Albeck Børge snatched the awards.
They play the accused stepfather and Holly’s mother, respectively.
