The Bridge

A woman is found murdered in the middle of Oresund Bridge, exactly on the border between Sweden and Denmark. Saga Noren from Malmo CID and Martin Rohde from the Copenhagen police department are called to the scene.

The murderer makes his presence known and chooses sharp-witted tabloid journalist Daniel Ferbe to act as middle man to communicate with the outside world.

A homeless man is kidnapped and the only thing that can stop the murderer from killing him is a large sum of money from four landlords.

The homeless man's survival becomes a race against time and depends completely on the four landlords' willingness to pay what the murderer demands.

The murderer has groomed a number of schizophrenic people over a long period of time, convincing them to commit carefully synchronized violent crimes in Malmo and Copenhagen on the same day.

Copenhagen is up in arms following a court case in which a group of police officers who beat an immigrant to death are found innocent.
