Tyskungen

Last weekend I finally had time to watch this Swedish movie.
It was a bit complicated because this is from a series and I have seen later movies before so it felt like I was watching in reverse ^^
Anyway, it was an overall good movie. I'll probably try to watch the rest as well! ^^



Title: Tyskungen (The hidden child)
Premiere 28 June 2013
Run time 105 min
Language: Swedish

Story
This is regarded as one of the more plot-driven novels in the series, with more emphasis on the story. Erika wants to write a 'great book' so Patrik goes on paternity leave to look after the baby whilst this occurs, then unexplained things start to happen: an elderly neighbour is found dead – not just that, but he has been dead for some time. What's more, this man knew Erika's late mother. Erika consults a local World War II historian, however, shortly after her visit, he is brutally murdered and it becomes clear that the past is still very much a part of some people's lives. The plot focuses on the discovery of a child's blood-spattered vest plus other memorabilia. Who would murder so cold-bloodedly to bury secrets so ancient? By way of a side-theme Melberg adopts a stray dog, finding that this leads to a meeting with another dog-owner who happens to be the mother of his new detective, Paula Morales; this provides a counterpoint to the increasingly sordid facts being unearthed in the search for the murderer.
