CrimeMysteryThriller96 min

Swedish detective Jonas arrives in northern Norway with his partner to investigate the murder of a teenage girl, but a botched pursuit leaves him responsible for a shooting he can’t admit. Stellan Skarsgård is Jonas, trying to keep the case moving while steering suspicion away from himself; Sverre Anker Ousdal’s Erik is the partner whose death turns the investigation into a cover-up. Under the constant glare of the midnight sun, sleep slips away, guilt blurs his judgment, and the small town’s fogbound streets close in as the killer remains at large.
