Fantastic tale spun by the Icelanders

Saw this on Netflix with my girlfriend in one sitting, really a great piece of dark drama. Well worth the watch!

Not bad, but a bit over-sophisticated script

Well, prison dramas are not novel, but they tend to focus on all "leading" prisoners in a rather equal manner, but here - it should be Linda´s story, but then other prisoner become involved more and more, at times overshadowing Linda and her issues. The origin of Linda´s deed can be alas guessed too soon as well.

The cast is strong and versatile though, with performers often seen in other Icelandic series, and the ending is catchy, but I have to say I liked e.g. Ófærð and Réttur more.

What a great surprise this show was. I had previously been let down somewhat by 'Locked up'. But this was really smart. Totally engaged with the cast and plot and I'm happy but not fazed that this show won awards. Second season please, pretty please.
