Fatal Crossing

It is an intelligent slow-paced crime show with strong characters, beautiful scenery and good acting. It's almost the opposite of Kastanjemannen - it's intelligent, you think you got it all figured out early on, but then the story is slowly twisting in an unexpected direction. I love Lone Theil's books about Nora Sand, and I think Marie Sandø Jondal is a perfect fit for Nora. It's a psychological story, of course, the main character has to solve a mystery within herself, and the riddle is existential and deals with anxiety ("angst" in Danish) and psychological motives with references to the philosopher Søren Kierkegaard (Nora's father is a professor on the great danish philosopher). I was amazed by the extremely long scenes towards the end of the show - and how my presuppositions made me draw the wrong conclusions.
