(Late 1980s-1990s)

Nickname: "The Heart of Scandinavia"

Logo: On a white background, the neon green, italicized text "KOPFILM" as well as an unidentifiable word of the same description appears above. After a couple of seconds, a heart made of the flags of Finland, Norway, Demark, and Sweden appears below. On it is "DIN VIDEO" arranged the same way as before along with a filmstrip surrounding the heart.
