Irene Huss 12: Jagat vittne

2011 · 89 min

A methodical Nordic police procedural that builds quiet tension through an unidentified victim and buried secrets.

Overview
A young beautiful woman is found dead in Göta Älv and on her finger she wears a brilliant-set wedding ring that belongs to someone else. Detective Inspector Irene Huss and her colleagues are put on the case and immediately run into problems. The autopsy shows that the cause of death is not drowning but a head injury. Who is she? She is not missing, no one can identify her, no one knows anything. Meanwhile, in a run-down barracks area, an abused man is sitting and brooding over a terrible secret... Angela Kovács returns in the role of Irene Huss. We also get to see Lasse Brandeby, Reuben Sallmander, Eric Ericson, Dag Malmberg and Anki Lidén again. In addition, a new forensic technician joins the team in the form of Moa Gammel, known from, among others, Summer with Göran. Finally, the hit series about Irene Huss is back, again this time based on Helene Tursten's best-selling detective series, and with more excitement than ever.
