Headhunters

ActionAdventureCrimeThriller100 min

A high-end corporate recruiter in Norway secretly steals art to bankroll his lavish life, then fixes on the most tempting score he’s seen yet: a valuable painting owned by one of his job candidates. Aksel Hennie is Roger Brown, whose polished career and gallery-owner wife Diana (Synnøve Macody Lund) can’t hide how overextended he is. When Diana introduces him to Clas Greve, a wealthy executive and former mercenary played by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Roger sees a way to solve his problems in one move. Instead, the theft sets off a tight cat-and-mouse chase that pulls his work, marriage, and carefully managed image into danger.
