Synopsis:

Simon Staho directed this Danish-Icelandic thriller, scripted by Stahho in collaboration with lead actor Nikolaj Coster Waldau. Copenhagen-born Ossy (Waldau) arrives in the suburbs to intrude on the family life of former friend Jimmy (Mads Mikkelsen). When they were pals at age 18, Jimmy accidentally killed a man. The two then left Denmark and traveled to the Far East, engaging in drug smuggling in Thailand until Jimmy departed, settling down in Reykjavik with his Icelandic wife Anna (Palina Jonsdottir). Ossy's arrival spells trouble, as Jimmy is caught between his devotion to Anna and Ossy's proposal of a drug deal. Shown at the 1998 Cannes Film Festival and the 1998 San Sebastian Film Festival.

Carrying 42 grams of heroin and keeping a deadly secret to himself, charming desperado Ossy tracks down his childhood pal Jimmy, with whom he spent years in Bangkok getting high on women, whisky and cocaine. But Jimmy, now with a family and a regular job, will do anything to hide his past and throws Ossy out. Ossy swears revenge, even if it means destroying Jimmy, his family - and himself.
