When a long-term inmate at a mental clinic in Scandinavia confesses to a series of brutal murders on the eve of his release, his therapist, a police officer, and the inmate himself set out to reconstruct the details of the case and comprehend the murky reality that emerges. Each of these characters hope to find a concealed truth: troubled criminal Mads looks to understand his past, his trusted confidante Anna seeks validation of her psychoanalytic theories, whilst investigator Soren sees both as his key to solving a number of cold cases.
As the trio struggle to discern fact from fiction, all are dragged deeper into a deadly game of psychological dependency that threatens to destroy them all.
Inspired by the incredible story of Scandinavia’s most infamous serial killer, this chilling Nordic noir crime-thriller stars Golden Globe® Winner Stellan Skarsgård (Chernobyl, Dune), Academy Award nominee Andrea Riseborough (To Leslie, Birdman, Oblivion), and Gustaf Skarsgård (Vikings, Westworld, Oppenheimer).
What Remains premieres exclusively on the Icon Film Channel from 3 June. In select UK cinemas 5 July.
