Not what I expected, it was very enjoyable and a good story.
Hellfjord is a 2012 Norwegian TV series on DVD.
Twin Peaks' meets ‘Hot Fuzz’.
“Hellfjord” is the story of urban police officer Salmander, a second generation Pakistani immigrant, who after accidentally killing his police horse in front of thousands of children gets promptly dismissed from the police force.
But due to a loophole in his civil service contract, he must serve out a 3-month notice period. His captain banishes him to Hellfjord – a tiny fishing community in the far north of Norway.
On arrival, things just go from bad to worse for Salmander. Hellfjord is populated by simple-minded people with an average age of 67, only interested in keeping to themselves.
But when Salmander scratches the surface, he discovers a secret that will turn Hellfjord upside down. Maybe even inside out.
EPISODE 1
Policeman Salmander loses his job in Oslo and must spend dismissal time in
Hellfjord, a shit hole of a place far north in the country. As soon as he
arrives, strange things start to happen in Hellfjord, and the seemingly quiet
place turns out to conceal dark secrets.
EPISODE 2
The transferred policeman Salmander just found a dead body on the island and
quickly becomes convinced that there is talk of a murder. There are several
suspicious people in the community, but as an alien and southerner he gets
little help from the locals.
EPISODE 3
Salmander goes undercover in Solvik jail to follow a lead in the murder case.
When his only ally in prison dies from a peanut-related accident, Salmander is
put behind bars for real. Not only must he follow a trail in the case, he must
also find a way to get out of prison. Meanwhile, Johanne finds a very special
clue in Hellfjord's murder mystery.
EPISODE 4
After breaking out of Solvik jail in a spectacular way, Salmander finds himself
in a even more difficult situation. The local journalist Johanne comes to the
rescue just before it goes seriously wrong, and together they connect the dots
that finally lead to Bosse Nova, owner of a local fishery.
EPISODE 5
Salmander and Johanne sneak into Hellfish at night and come across something
strange. They overhear Bosse Nova talking about the infamous serpent Tulla, and
despite Salmander's chronic seasickness he decides to defy his fear and look
into this phenomenon.
EPISODE 6
Salmander's notice period is over and he is sent back to Oslo. He continues to
investigate the murder mystery as a civilian. Meanwhile in Hellfjord, Johanne
finally gets to the bottom of Bosse Nova's hidden activities by herself, and
reveals a conspiracy that is bigger than they ever could have imagined.
EPISODE 7
Salmander and Johanne have each on their own exposed Bosse Nova's drug
business. Without police help, but armed with confidence and a machine gun,
Salmander comes back to Hellfjord for a final showdown with Bosse in the fish
factory Hellfish.
