In the mid to late '90s, the Reykjavik crime and drug scene saw a drastic change from a relatively small and innocent world into a much more aggressive and violent one.. The film tells the story of this change through the fictional gang of pushers that took control of Iceland's underworld.

VIBE

A dark, unflinching descent into Iceland's underworld. It's a raw, brutal portrayal of ambition and corruption, fueled by drugs and violence. The film feels like a cold, hard punch to the gut, leaving you with a sense of dread.
