Black Sands II

Svörtu Sandar II / Black Sands II


Drama Series, Iceland 2024, 3 x 45 Min., icel. OV, engl. st


The Icelandic sand is still black and the atmosphere still inhospitable in the second season of $Black Sands% (NFL 2021). Anita, the policewoman who during the first season was forced to face her past while solving a murder in her hometown, has since had a child. Motherhood, her demanding job, imminent postpartum depression, and her relationship with her wife Frida require all the strength she has. When an elderly neighbour is found dead shortly after voicing a disturbing suspicion to Anita’s grandmother, Anita is thrown into a new investigation. She needs to find out how deeply her family is involved in the case – and what that means for her. In the new, adrenaline-charged season of this Nordic Noir, showrunner Baldvin Z expands the universe of $Black Sands% and reveals more about its main protagonist. Brilliantly acted and with a dark and compelling aesthetic, the new season works as stand-alone viewing even for people who have not seen season one. The NFL is screening episodes 1, 2, and 6 of the eight-part series.
