Why we chose it

Norway’s best recruiter stands 168 cm tall and is sure his wife will leave him one day, so he steals paintings to pay for their lavish life. This adaptation of Jo Nesbø’s bestselling crime novel turns Roger from hunter into prey the moment a theft goes wrong, and the pace never lets up.

Synopsis

Roger Brown is the best headhunter in Norway, and he secretly leads a second life as a brilliant art thief. His wife Diana, who runs a gallery, introduces him to Clas Greve, a candidate for the very job Roger is recruiting for. And on Greve’s wall hangs a Rubens that has been missing since the war.
