"Hellfjord" is the story of the urban police officer Salmander - second generation Pakistani immigrant - who, after somewhat accidentally killing his police horse in front of thousands of children, gets relocated to the location farthest north in Norway: Hellfjord. Hellfjord is archetypical small Norwegian hick village, populated by simple-minded people keenly interested in keeping to themselves. But when Salmander scratches the surface, he discovers a secret that will turn Hellfjord upside down. Maybe even inside out.

A bizarre and gleefully vulgar Norwegian comedy series. If you can get on the wavelength of its humour then you'll have a blast with this. And Ingrid Bolso Berdal's baby perm is a thing of wonder.
