The Investigation (2020)

A tense true-crime drama exploring the gripping case of the murdered young Swedish journalist Kim Wall that shocked a nation and made international headlines around the world in 2017 and ‘18.

From the acclaimed director of Borgen and Mindhunter, this brooding drama covers the six-month investigation into how and why Wall was murdered on a submarine where she was interviewing the eccentric inventor who had built it. Cutting edge forensic techniques are used and dogged policing sees the case finally brought to justice, but only after much obfuscation from the killer and seemingly insurmountable obstacles in the gathering of evidence.

In what is to become his final investigation, determined detective Jens Møller never gives up, and forms close ties with the victim’s family spurring him to seek justice at any cost.

A Miso Film Production.

Available to watch on BBC Two in the UK plus HBO, TV2, SVT1 & C More.
