The announcement:
SBS continues its commitment to intelligent, quality programming with the acquisition of two non-English language comedies Hellfjord and Klown, as it moves to broaden its comedy offering on SBS ONE.
Norwegian series Hellfjord follows Salmander, a disgraced police officer banished to the mysterious island of Hellfjord in Norway’s far north after he accidentally kills his police horse in front of thousands of children. Hellfjord is inhabited by a decidedly strange community of residents intent on keeping themselves to themselves, but when Salmander begins to scratch the surface, he discovers a secret that will turn Hellfjord upside down.
