Arnar Runarsson
Forlagið
— not yet credited —
A tense mystery unfolding around Reykjavik, where a quiet archive and a late-night crossing pull Arnar Runarsson into an investigation that reaches far beyond the first disappearance. The mood stays domestic and quiet. It begins in Iceland, in Icelandic.
