    • IN THE SCANINAVIAN TRADITION OF BECH, HAMILTON, UNIT ONE, NOW COMES THE FEATURE FILM – A CRY IN THE WOODS
      Acclaimed Danish actor, Lars Bom, plays lead.
      In a claustrophobic and very intense atmosphere A CRY IN THE WOODS tells the story of Chief officer Karsten Skov who investigates a very cruel murder-case. A young boy claims to have seen the murderer and points him out to be the mentally ill man Erkki. The reason for the hospitalizing of Erkki makes him the obvious suspect. Erkki’s psychiatrist, Sara convinces Karsten that Erkki is not the murderer he is looking for, but none of the colleagues at the station believes in him and time is running out.
      A CRY IN THE WOODS is a crime-thriller of international standards – intelligent, puzzling and mysterious -where nothing turns out the way you expect it to.
