For American viewers, the story of Norway's Crown Princess M\xe4rtha is likely mostly unknown. But the Crown Princess' World War II influence was a surprise even for Atlantic Crossing co-writer and director Alexander Eik, who spent almost seven years researching his miniseries. Eik explains how he found the key to M\xe4rtha's story, and what viewers should anticipate in the next seven episodes, in a new interview.
