A magnate's death reveals Emma as his unknown daughter, heir alongside four siblings she never knew.

When one of Norway's wealthiest shipping tycoons passes away, Emma (25) learns that she is his previously unknown daughter. The news comes as a shock, and even more surprising is that she has been named in his will, inheriting a large portion of the family business. But the inheritance comes with an even greater revelation - four siblings she never knew existed. When faced with immense wealth, even the best of us can lose our heads. And our hearts.

Director's note

Nepobaby is an energetic, engaging, humorous, warm, and deeply human series that explores our fundamental longing for belonging, love, and validation. Through the main character Emma and the other characters, we will reflect on how these basic needs are complicated by the way money influences relationships, self-esteem, and identity.
The series will balance everyday humor with the more serious emotional challenges that Emma and the other characters face. The dialogues will have a casual lightness, while also being able to delve deeply into the characters' inner lives, giving viewers the opportunity to reflect on their own values and relationships.
Nepobaby will balance humor, warmth, and vulnerability, with a distinct documentary-style visual approach that enhances the emotional depth and authenticity of the story.
