WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

In a post-apocalyptic world that has been torn apart by war, six soldiers – including experienced skater Caroline Edh (Rapace) – are recruited for a covert mission that sees them journey across a frozen archipelago to deliver an important package that could end the war. However, as the soldiers enter hostile enemy territory, Caroline and her comrades soon find themselves fighting for their lives…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Noomi Rapace returns to her native Swedish cinema with a starring role in this epic and dramatic Nordic action-thriller that’s got plenty of explosions and even some ice-skating (it makes sense in context, we promise!).
