Anyone in the UK who was old enough to listen to music in the ‘90s knew who Ace of Base were. They weren’t just a pop band, they were a cultural phenomenon and now, a brand-new uncensored documentary– Ace of Base: All That She Wants – shares the warts-and-all story of one of Sweden’s most successful pop bands’ rise and fall. This fascinating music docuseries gets its UK Premiere exclusively on Viaplay on 18 November.

Their first album – Happy Nation – was released in 1993 and is still, to this day, the biggest debut album of all time, with sales of more than 25 million copies. The pop quartet that no one believed in became, thanks to super hits like All That She Wants and The Sign, an international music success story. A testament to their popularity and staying power, the band have around 10 million monthly listeners on Spotify and All That She Wants has more than 456 million streams.

But behind their accomplishments lay deep darkness that saw Ulf Ekberg threatened by right-wing extremists, Jenny Berggren attacked by a German fan in her home and then disagreements over songs and money that eventually led to their demise.

Featuring private never-before-seen home movie footage and intimate diaries, this three-part series tells the fascinating tale of how three siblings Jonas, Jenny and Malin Berggren and their friend Ulf Ekberg, became Sweden’s third biggest pop export after Abba and Roxette and how their grandiose pop dreams, chart success and money collided with relentless adversity, performance anxiety and shattered friendships.
