Product Information
It looks like nothing ever happens in Iceland and when a seemingly innocuous old man is brutally killed, the news is in someway amplified. Detective Erlendur Sveisson, fifty and a life plagued by various forms of addiction, is appointed the apparently incomprehensible case. During his investigations of the murder, Erlendur discovers that the victim was anything but an innocent pensioner, his past filled with rape and violence.

Additional InformationIt looks like nothing ever happens in Iceland and when a seemingly innocuous old man is brutally killed, the news is in someway amplified.

Perfectly crafted as a suspense generating machine, what really makes JAR CITY a unique film in its genre is the effective balance between its vivid and somewhat physical images, and its cerebral, nearly philosophical narrative mood.
