Historical documentary for Novo Nordisk

Novo Nordisk is built on a strong heritage from its founders. The story of how these scientists and innovators started insulin production in Scandinavia is a tale of a determination, idealism - and conflict. This film is made to introduce new employees to the values that still constitute Novo Nordisk’s DNA as a company.
