POLICE OFFICER

When would you tell me?

I'm gone for a few days and you go behind my back?

You weren't gone.

You were suspended for a week for assaulting an officer.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

What's wrong with your hand?

- He deserved it. - I slipped on the ice.

- Again? - What are they shouting about?

You.

- Is it him? - Yes. Be nice.

- Hello, Lukas. - Good morning.

- Join us. - Hello.

- Sit down. - Thank you.

Hulda, this is Lukas Sigrunarson.

From Birmingham Police in the UK.

He made a big impression.

It is an honor to meet you. I've heard a lot about you.

- How is this supposed to work? - It's quite simple.

You two are partners now.

Since when has the department had partners?

Rather, he will learn from you as part of…

... the transition.

I'm not a babysitter.

I will do my best to learn it quickly.

I'm here to support you before you quit.

Is he here to push me out?

He must learn from an investigator whose skills will be missed.

We begin by denying -

- and then you have to learn to accept shit.

Hulda, you are one of our best officers.

Lukas has done an excellent job in the UK.

You two make a good team.

So why did he leave England to work in Reykjavik?

You must have solved all crimes at home.

- I was born in Iceland and... - I don't care.

For heaven's sake, you're lucky to be back at work.

Listen, I...

This wasn't how you were supposed to find out -

- but right now I'd be more concerned -

- to keep your criminal record clean before you retire.

- Can you give us a moment? - Yes. I look forward to the collaboration.

Yes, great. Thanks.

I'm all for it.

Smile and nod.

Don't make too much noise on your way out, okay?

Hulda, retirement doesn't have to be all or nothing.

Damn it. Drop it.

What do you know about it?

I know the last week has been atypical.

It's been a year since Dimma died.

It must be a difficult time.

If there is anything you need...

I have to get back to work.

Not.

Hello.

- How's it going? - You should have seen the other guy.

I did that.

Good for you.

Magnus thinks that I ...

... creates me because of Dimma's death anniversary.

I miss her.

Very.

I do that too.

When you want to talk...

...can we go over to Dillon's and have a drink.

Yes, let's do it soon.

- Fine. - Fine.

Sorry, bad habit.

Sorry about the desk. I wouldn't...

- Take it over? - No.

Yes, you are right. Excuse me.

I looked at the Popova case -

- and according to the files, all her clothes were brand new.

I know that.

She is a refugee and has neither a job nor family money.

How can she afford it? It's not cheap.

Unless someone bought it for her.

I also found the last place Katja was seen.

A language course.

It is run by the Icelandic Humanitarian Society -

- closer to Breiðholt, where the bedroom is located.

I thought...

... that we could go there -

- talk to the teachers and get a feel for the atmosphere.

That would be good police work.

To get a feel for the atmosphere.

POLICE OFFICER

Hulda, can I get a lift?

I left my car in town last night. It's a bit...

Hello.

Stay here and work on the expensive clothes.

Meet me at the hostel later. Get that finger fixed. It is ugly.

JÓN MOBIL

Bjartur Hermannsson?

I am here regarding your former student, Katja Popova.

Of course.

I saw it on the news.

- What a tragedy. - Were you close to each other?

Not particularly. She was a really nice girl.

As far as I could see.

Often they are not here for long.

- The refugees, you mean? - Yes.

Sorry, I mean, I ... I mainly teach refugees.

Life is not so easy for them, but ...

... Katja probably hid it well.

Hiding what?

- So, she committed suicide, right? - I cannot comment on that.

Do you know the date of the last class Katja attended?

Not immediately, but…

- Let me... - Yes.

Here. Tuesday a few weeks ago.

A few weeks ago and you didn't report it?

No. People can come and go as they please.

But I...

... can see that she left for the holidays.

- Do you know where she was going? - No, unfortunately.

Did she have friends in class? Someone in particular she was with?

There is a Russian girl.

Elena.

- Elena Dubrovskyi. - Yes.

Do you know if Katja worked illegally somewhere?

I'm not sure, but she attracted quite a bit of interest from men.

Did she see someone, do you think?

- Maybe. - Thank you.

I saw her being picked up a couple of times in a 4WD.

Something more specific?

It was black. It looked expensive.

There was a rumor that she made money from sex.

- Did you report it? - It was just a rumour.

And frankly, no one asked.

Can you confirm where you went after class that day?

I was at football. The sports center can confirm that.

Can I get information on the other students? Names, numbers?

- Of course. - Fine.

Not.

You must call all of Katja's classmates.

Here is the information. Find out who she was with.

We know that she is good friends with Elena Dubrovskij.

- We're talking to her now. - Yes.

The teacher claims he was working the day she disappeared.

Confirm it.

- And when Katja left. - Yes, sure.

I examined the clothes.

I'm still trying to confirm where and when it was purchased.

Good, I'll ask the questions.

- You stay in the background, right? - Yeah.

Well. Let's find Elena.

We can eat cake. We can make it at home.

- Fine. - Cat fur cake?

- No, spider web cake. - Cobweb cake? It's sticky.

Get names and portrait photos of other residents, right?

Good then.

- Do you have my key? - I'll take it.

- Is Elena Dubrovsky here? - Elena Dubrovsky?

- Elena Dubrovsky. - No, sorry.

- Isn't she here? - No, she's not here.

- Is it about Katja? - Yes.

Terrible, right?

- Did she often hike on the glacier? - I can't quite handle that.

She didn't seem like that type. She was very stylish and elegant.

Crazy about fashion and high heels and things like that.

She is the last person I would imagine as a wanderer.

I may have more questions for you in a bit.

There you are.

Let's talk in the room.

Let's talk in the room.

I know you feel…

... that no one listens to you.

- But I'm here. - It's too late now.

For Katja, yes -

- but I want to find out what happened to her.

If someone did something to her, I'll find them.

There are rumors about how Katja made money.

Do you know anything about it?

Honey, please put the puzzle together.

- Oh, puzzles. - Please put puzzles.

- Come with me. - Yes.

Come with me. Show me where the puzzles are.

I don't know about the rumor.

But Katja was at a party once. She came home very upset.

She didn't want to say anything, She didn't want to talk at all.

Did you tell the other detective?

No, I didn't want anyone to think badly of her.

- For her chance to stay here. - Of course.

Do you know whose party it was?

Were you never invited to one of those parties?

- No, I never participate. - Are you sure?

I'm not risking the future here.

- I have Rudi. - Yes.

And Katja.

We care about each other. Like family.

She swore she wasn't doing anything, but she wanted to go out one night.

And.

She had money out of thin air.

I think she had a boyfriend.

Do you know who the boyfriend was?

- I don't know. - It's hard to believe.

If you ask her and you are her best friend…

I don't understand it.

It makes no sense for her to take a risk with her visa.

Do you know what we had to go through to get here?

We risk everything for a new life.

Of course. I understand that.

Not.

Good then.

Maybe lower. Yes, good.

- It's a nice jacket. - Thank you.

- Where did you get it from? - Aunt Katja.

Aunt Katja, now then.

That's sweet of her. It's a nice gift, isn't it?

May I take a picture?

Say ... Look at me and say:

- "Green peas." - Green peas.

- Fine. - What does "green peas" mean?

- The vegetables. Small green peas. - Green peas or wild beans.

Rudi's jacket is from the same shop as Katja's clothes.

It costs more than my salary.

- It's terrible. - What?

The situation these women are in. It's just...

Yes. The system is brutal.

Brutal? There is no system for them.

We might as well throw them in the sea.

She just wants a better life for her son.

Safety harness.

Did Rudi say where he got the jacket from?

Katja.

- Who is it? - Aki Haraldsson.

The parties Elena mentioned made me think of him.

He had a sex ring. He was released a year ago.

- Do you think he's involved? - Maybe.

Piss. I have to go.

See you tomorrow.

It's hard to accept that feeling.

It has not been easy.

Thanks for sharing it.

- Welcome. - Thank you.

Maybe you want to share, Hulda?

No way.

That's perfectly fine.

No expectations here. Only when you are ready.

- I would like to say something. - Yes, Jon.

Our daughter was 19 when she ...

And...

But when she was little...

... she fell ill.

She had a fever and an absolutely terrible cry.

We couldn't get her to sleep...

... so Hulda and I switched to ...

... to hold her in our arms for two nights.

But the third night...

... I didn't wake up.

I had set the alarm and everything -

- but for some reason it didn't ring, so ...

Hulda held Dimma in her arms all night.

She just walked around the house.

In the dark.

I really don't know how she did it.

Men ...

... when Dimma got better -

- we forgot how hard it had been...

... but occasionally ...

... I'm afraid we failed her from the start -

- by calling her Dimma.

You know? "Darkness."

Like we cursed her or something.

- It was quite a performance. - What?

That night when Dimma was little? I didn't let you sleep.

I tried to wake you up. I was desperate for help.

- You ignored me. - Hulda.

Your alarm clock rang. I heard it.

- You just didn't want to help. - What do you mean?

Because it was too hard.

You forgot that detail when you trumpeted your grief.

- Hulda ... - I'm going for a walk.

Hide!

- Moa. You ... - Moa!

Moa, come here.

I'm not forcing her to do this.

- She is a good distraction. - Moa, come here.

She can live with me.

- Moa. - No, you can stay with me.

- Sorry. - Well then, what's going on?

- I'm going out to eat. - Just eat?

Yes, just eat.

- Hold on. - What?

It is very...

- You are very nicely dressed. - Do you think it's too much?

How about this? Is it better?

- Just... Well, that... - Not better?

Wow, wind.

- I'm not too... - Perfect. That's fine.

I have to...

- Do you have dinner with your girlfriend? - She is not mine at all.

Otherwise it looked like something.

She probably thinks that if she stays just a little longer -

- then I die, and she gets the house.

- It's a fantastic house. - A wonderful house.

Why do you bother? Isn't that a bit exhausting?

I don't know that. For the sake of the company. Someone to talk to.

I'm now too old for this fart.

- Yes, you are. - Yes.

- What about you? - Maybe I am.

- I don't know. - No.

What are your plans for tonight?

A huge glass of whiskey and in bed before 21.00.

Yes, it's just an evening for me.

- Have a good evening. You look good. - Thank you.

REPRESENT WOMEN

I've been thinking about what you said and…

... that's not how I remember it.

You know what, Hulda?

When you retire, you have nothing to fill your days with.

Nothing to distract you from what is more important.

Would it be you?

At least I am willing to confront Dimma's death.

You seem happy to...

You haven't cried since her funeral.

You have not taken care of the ashes.

This evasion is ... not natural.

Our child died before us.

Is it natural?

She took her own life and we will never know why.

We will never know what…

What hurt so much that she had to commit suicide.

None of this is natural.

I think that what happened to you as a child -

- the trauma with your mother and all...

Maybe that trauma makes it harder for you to let go.

"Give slip."

- That makes sense. That's all ... - You don't dare.

You dare not talk about it as if you understand any of it.

You just had to know. Sleep on the couch.

- Hello. Can I sit here? - Sorry, the space is taken.

- What? - You must really want to be alone.

Then I'll drink with you.

It's never a good idea to drink with tourists.

I'm not a tourist. I live here.

- Where? - Not far away.

I moved back a week ago.

I was born here. I've been gone a long time.

So you chose to move back here?

- It's a danger signal. - I now like what I see.

Why not?

The problem is that it is too far away...

Sorry, it's clean. Certainly.

It's bad.

It's bad.

Hello.

- Have you seen Karen? - Yes, she is in the canteen.

Good, come with me.

I spoke to all the students in Katja's class.

Some of them saw her going that day, but they don't know where she was going.

An administrator at the sports center saw Bjartur there in the evening.

Nice enough.

Hi, Karen.

Aki Haraldsson was your case, right?

- Yeah. - Do you think he wants to talk to us?

Take care. He is dangerous.

Why did he only get five years with so many charges?

Important evidence was lost.

It's ridiculous, but at least we got him convicted.

What is it about?

We hope he can shed light on a clue.

Do you think it's about sex trafficking?

What do you think, Karen? Of course it does.

Listen, just…

Just be careful. I mean it.

He harms women. A lot of mischief.

What he did to the women…

Hulda, are you playing super cop before you stop?

You go out with a bang like a hero.

- Shut up, Alexander. - I say it, no one else will.

You should sit at home and not steal my case.

- Come on now. - It's okay. Alexander.

Do you want to hit me again?

Come on. I want to see you stop early.

Where was Katja last seen?

The first and most basic fact to establish -

- when investigating a missing person:

Where were they last seen?

You don't know because you never followed up on it.

She was not a case. She had a name.

Katja Popova.

You didn't do anything to help her.

Now she is dead.

Go home to your husband, Hulda, if he wants you.

You're not just a lazy cop.

You are a pitiful human being.

- Tak, Karen. - Ja.

What are you staring at?

What?

She has the equipment on and throws herself into a glacier.

The same day her visa was approved. That's what you kill yourself for, right?

Then an accident or a crime.

With her connection to sex work...

She was murdered. Yes, I agree.

It's just a lie.

It will be fun one day, but not today.

- Hello. Over here. Police. - Do you have a warrant?

We have some questions for Aki Haraldsson.

We don't need a warrant.

Yes, you do.

- He seems nice. - Yes, of being a Neanderthal.

I guess we'll need that warrant anyway.

Can Magnus get us a warrant?

I don't know that. Perhaps.

I'm going to get something at home and I'll drop you off.

Who is that?

I don't know that.

- Shall I wait here? - Yes.

Hide.

What is going on?

You know Kristjan and Emilia.

- Hello. - Hello.

I thought it would be nice to have dinner together.

It's nice. I have my own guest with me.

I'll pick him up.

Well, Lukas, what brings you to Iceland?

I was actually born here so I wanted to see where I came from.

- Yes. - Yes.

I love Reykjavík. Lots of corrugated iron and the like.

It was good to see you last night.

- We really missed you at the meeting. - How?

Excuse me?

How can you miss someone you don't even know?

Hide.

They are here to help us.

Hear...

I thought it would be good to face the grief.

- Do you want whiskey, Lukas? - Yes, thank you.

It's not good for us to avoid it, is it?

By "us" do you mean me?

I wanted to feel the same way and felt like this -

- and what you feel is always right.

It is so painful.

I feel your loss and it hurts me so much.

I know my words don't solve anything.

But me and Kristjan...

- I'll get them. - No...

No, I'll get them.

Excuse me.

Hulda, you can't keep pushing me away.

- No, let me help you. - I have it.

- Let me help you. Hulda. - I have it.

- What the hell? - Shit...

what are you doing

- That's enough. - Leave me alone. Move.

- Stop. - I'm just...

Stop it. Hulda, stop it.

I'm tired of you telling me how to grieve.

You have your way and I have mine.

- Just relax. - Relax?

- Yes. - Relax?

My child is dead.

- Yes. - She's dead.

You stupid, arrogant…

Damn it, Hulda!

How could you have missed it?

Dimma was dying before your eyes -

- and you overlooked it, dammit!

What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?

- Jon. - Jon.

Has he taken his medicine, Hulda?

It is very important that he takes his medicine.

His beta blockers. He must not forget a dose.

Are you in?

His heart is very weak.

His heart is very weak.

Hide?

I'm so sorry.

You shouldn't be. It's alright.

I have escaped from it. I know that.

I think the time has come.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Hello.

Hello.

- Yes, do you want to come in? - Yes.

- Are you on your way to school? - Yes, we are a little late on that one.

What school do you go to?

Fold school.

Do you like it?

- Neither do I. - Would you like coffee or tea?

No, otherwise thank you.

Well done.

Has something happened?

You don't have to worry anymore. I'm closing your case.

Excuse me.

It is closed. You won't hear from us again.

You boys are good to your mother, aren't you?

- We probably will. - Yes?

Well.

Boys are beautiful.

- Hulda? - Where are you?

Hunting for tennis balls on a fucking glacier.

How is Jon doing?

He's fine.

What about you? How are you?

I'm fine.

Let me know if you find anything. Whatever.

And.

Turn around and leave the property.

- Listen here. - Yes, speak up.

Assault an officer.

- It will look good on your CV. - Wait.

Sorry, boss. She just stormed in.

Step with you.

- You must be Aki Haraldsson. - And you must have entered illegally.

I have a few questions.

Am I suspected of a crime?

No, I just count on you as a good citizen.

Have you heard about the Russian girl who was found dead?

Yes, I have, so what?

There is talk that she might have been involved in sex work.

Of course you think I know about all the whores in Iceland.

- A woman is dead. - I had nothing to do with that.

The way you treat women, I'm not so sure.

Aren't you the cop whose daughter committed suicide?

Hello! Take good care of that horse. It is more expensive than your mother.

Nice place.

How many horses? 20? 30?

You have done well, even though you were only released a year ago.

What would happen if I shook your financial tree?

- What would fall out? - Are you shaking my tree?

According to your tax return, you only have three horses.

I shake yours.

There is much the state can do with the land.

Do you miss prison?

Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Nice enough.

Listen.

I just know that some refugees get caught in the game.

Some? How many are we talking about?

Many of them need money so…

- I have nothing to do with it. - Fine. So who has?

I don't know that. Isn't that your job?

Piss with you.

If I find out you know more, I'll be back.

Step and stay away.

She was just here.

You fix it. Now.

What is it?

It's ... skating.

- And this? - Nose.

Nose, good.

Well.

- Helmet? - Helmet, good.

- Too tight? - No.

Great. You're doing fine.

- Do you like this? - Yes.

And?

I'm going to the bathroom right now.

- Fine. - I'll be right back.

Want to play a game? Telephone?

- Thank you. - I'll be back soon.

I'll be back soon.

It will probably work.

help me

Is something wrong?

- Sorry. - Hello?

It wasn't on purpose.

It wasn't on purpose.

It will probably work.

- Katja? - It will probably work.
