Alma, from Spain, is a supernatural drama about a girl who wakes up with no memory of an accident that kills all her classmates. The second is called Ragnarok, which Peters described as a coming-of-age drama rooted in Norse mythology but set in modern-day Norway. Both shows are due to go into production next year for a 2020 launch.
The shows are part of the company's bid to fund high-quality foreign-language content and promote it to audiences around the world. They'll also help Netflix thrive if Europe enacts a new law stipulating that 30 percent of content on streaming services must be created in European countries, though Peters didn't mention this in his remarks.
