Nordic Noir arrives courtesy of Call Girl out on DVD this October

What better way to kick off the week than with a Swedish political thriller from the creators of Wallander? Nope, can't think of many ourselves, so off we go then!

Artificial Eye have announced the release of Nordic noir title Call Girl, out on DVD this coming 28th October. Alas the only extras are a trailer, and the recommended retail price will be £15.99.

Synopsis and trailer follow...

Sweden in the late 70s seems like the perfect society, with neutral politics and women’s liberation dominating the media. But beneath the polished surface lurks a corrupt, seedy underworld of strip shows and sex clubs where dreams are made and lives are destroyed.

Iris, a young girl from the bottom rung of society, works as call girl within this murky world. And Iris has learnt that power can get you anything.
