This little five episode gem is unquestionable remembered by most people born before 1975. When it first aired, it was the talk of the country. It seemed like all the big actors were lined up to get a part in it, and the storyline all throughout the five hours is fantastic.
It's hard to point your finger at something that isn't good about this production. One might say a limited budget, and sure, Danish TV will always be of limited means, but that's about it. It has great actors in practically all the roles, the writing is magnificent, the plot is quite unique, the car chase in episode one made everybody gasp for air when it was finally over with, a great atmosphere of tension surrounds every minute, the directing is great and even the title song ("Sjæl i flammer" by Casper Winding) was a gigantic hit.
