A chilling mysterious atmosphere in unpleasantly blue tones, a hushed-up past and a twisted criminal case that should have been forgotten long ago. Detective Ó?innes gradually uncovers disturbing facts about a juvenile detention facility where two boys died under unclear circumstances in the 1980s. The tragedy was dismissed as an accident at the time, but the reopening brings to light new facts, as well as mysterious events. The detective's professional life intersects with his personal life, and the case also affects his teenage daughter, whom he is raising alone after the mysterious suicide of his wife. Rational reasoning collapses, as does the protagonist's certainty. The chilling crime story spanning several genres is based on the bestseller by Icelandic writer Yrsa Sigur?ardóttir. The director is Erlingur Thoroddsen, an established creator of thematically diverse horror films, who skillfully combines well-known genre techniques and local Scandinavian poetics. The film received six nominations at the Icelandic Film and Television Academy's Edda Awards.
