Description

1955 . Two young couples move to the uninhabited, isolated fjord of Hedinsfjörður. Their stay ends abruptly when one of the women meets her death in mysterious circumstances. The case is never solved. Fifty years later an old photograph comes to light, and it becomes clear that the couples may not have been alone on the fjord after all ... In nearby Siglufjörður, young policeman Ari Thór tries to piece together what really happened that fateful night, in a town where no one wants to know, where secrets are a way of life. He's assisted by Ísrún, a news reporter in Reykjavik, who is investigating an increasingly chilling case of her own. Things take a sinister turn when a child goes missing in broad daylight. With a stalker on the loose, and the town of Siglufjörður in quarantine, the past might just come back to haunt them.

Description

Zwei Tage vor Weihnachten: Die Leiche einer jungen Frau wird unterhalb der Klippen im Norden Islands gefunden – genau an der Stelle, an der vor 25 Jahren ihre tote Mutter und ihre jüngere Schwester gelegen hatten. Als Ari, Polizist in Siglufjörður, den Tatort inspiziert, stellt sich bald die Frage: War es ein Unfall, oder wurde die junge Frau gestoßen? Was wissen die letzten verbliebenen Einwohner des Dorfes? Als Schneefall einsetzt, der Dorf und Klippen in einem unwirklichen Licht erscheinen lässt, kommt Ari einer unfassbaren Tragödie auf die Spur.
