Reykjavík 112 is a gripping series based on Yrsa Sigurðardóttir’s bestselling novel DNA.

A woman is brutally murdered, and her six-year-old daughter witnesses the crime. Detective Huldar is tasked with solving the case and protecting the child. The child psychologist Freyja helps Huldar get to the truth, trying to unlock the girl’s memories before the killer strikes again – this time against Ástrós, a respected scientist at deCODE genetics, played by María.

The trio Reynir Lyngdal, Tinna Hrafnsdóttir and Óskar Þór Axelsson direct an outstanding cast in this ambitious, high-quality production where no expense has been spared.

The leading roles are played by Kolbeinn Arnbjörnsson, Vivian Ólafsdóttir, Þorsteinn Bachmann, Anna Gunndís Guðmundsdóttir, Elma Lísa Gunnarsdóttir, Jóhanna Vigdís Arnardóttir, Ebba Katrín Finnsdóttir, Þorsteinn Pálmarsson and María Ellingsen.

The screenplay is by Óttar M. Norðfjörð, Björg Magnúsdóttir and Snorri Þórisson.
