Cold Haven nominated for Berlinale Series Market Selects 2026
Cold Haven, a production by SPi in collaboration with Icelandic production company Glassriver, has been nominated for Berlinale Series Market Selects 2026, one of the most important international platforms for promoting and showcasing series at the Berlin International Film Festival.
The nomination comes after the Berlinale Series Market selection team highlighted the exceptional quality of the project, praising its distinctive style, engaging narrative, as well as the direction and performances, which they considered exquisite and with strong potential in the international market.
Being part of the Berlinale Series Market Selects represents significant recognition and a strategic opportunity for Cold Haven, allowing it to be presented exclusively to accredited professionals from the global audiovisual industry. The series will have the opportunity to be screened in person at CinemaxX in Potsdamer Platz between 16 and 18 February 2026, or alternatively through an online screening, ensuring visibility among decision-makers, distributors, programmers and international partners.
In addition to the screening, selection for the Berlinale Series Market Selects includes a feature in an official press release, promotion on the Berlinale Series Market's digital channels, including its website and Instagram, and the award of an official logo, which may be used in all communication and promotional materials for the series. It should also be noted that this screening does not compromise the premiere status of the work, as access is restricted exclusively to industry professionals.
This nomination reinforces the positioning of SPi projects, in this particular case Cold Haven, as a project with a promising future on the international series scene, confirming its artistic and commercial potential in one of the most prestigious markets in the European and global audiovisual sector.
