IN ORDER OF DISAPPEARANCE
“A Norwegian TAKEN”
SHORTLIST
‘A Spurting bloodfest of dark humour’
Kate Muir, THE TIMES
‘’a blackly hilarious rampage of revenge’
INDIE WIRE
A hugely enjoyable, gruesome, ingenious, brilliantly-cast, pitch-black comedy set against the hugely cinematic white landscape of a rural Norwegian winter. Like Death Wish set in Fargo, but funnier … and bloodier!
THE LIST
A FILM BY HANS PETTER MOLAND (A SOMEWHAT GENTLE MAN)
STARRING STELLAN SKARSGARD (NYMPHOMANIAC, THE AVENGERS), BRUNO GANZ (DOWNFALL), KRISTOFFER HIVJU (GAME OF THRONES) & BIRGITTE HJORT SORENSEN (BORGEN)
Introverted and hard-working snow plow driver Nils (Stellan Skarsgard) has just been named citizen of the year, when he receives news that his son has died of a heroin overdose.
Disbelieving the official report, Nils soon uncovers evidence of the young man’s murder—a victim in a turf war between the local crime boss, known as “The Count,” and his Serbian rivals. Armed with heavy machinery and a good dose of beginner’s luck, Nils embarks upon a quest for revenge that soon escalates into a full-blown underworld gang war, with the body count spiraling ever higher and higher.
