Tími nornarinnar (The Witch’s Time) is a four-part Icelandic crime thriller directed by Friðrik Þór Friðriksson, based on Árni Þórarinsson’s bestselling novel of the same name.

The story takes place in North Iceland in the depths of winter and follows Einar, a journalist at the Akureyri office of the newspaper Síðdegisblaðið. When a young woman dies in mysterious circumstances on a river-rafting trip and an actor vanishes without a trace, Einar begins to investigate. Gradually it emerges that the events are connected in unexpected ways, drawing him into a tangled world of secrets, conflict and old stories.

The leading cast includes Hjálmar Hjálmarsson, Inga María Valdimarsdóttir and María Ellingsen.
