It didn't matter that they were on the main street next to the town. You still had to look out for them." All in a night's work for the man from Iceland's Air and Ground Rescue and his team. SURVIVING AND TRIUMPHANT True Detective: Night Country premiered on January 14 of this year to critical and commercial praise. It went on to receive six Primetime Emmy Award nominations, winning one for series lead Jodie Foster. The series featured close to 60 practical locations over the course of its six episodes. For their work, Thor, Einar, Robert and Jethro received a nomination for "Outstanding Locations in a TV Serial Program, Anthology, MOW or Limited Series" at this year's 11th Annual LMGI Awards. Truenorth has capitalized on the awareness Night Country has given them globally and, as of this writing, the company has projects shooting in three countries simultaneously—a milestone. "Night Country was a big jewel in our crown," says Einar. "We proved that a project of that scale can be handled at the highest standard here in Iceland, and I'm proud, not only of what we accomplished on the show, but of this country."
