Swedish murder mystery film, a reporter for a controversial magazine comes to the public attention when he loses a court case, after being accused of libel. The case turns out to be a distraction. In any case a rich head of a family business employs him to investigate the murder of one of his relatives some 30-40 years previous. The reporters computer has been hacked into by a professional hacker, who gets drawn into the investigation. The hacker is a troubled person with an abused past and is under the control of a probation officer who is also abusing her.

You get the idea things are complicated and the film is 2 and a half hours long but we watched it to the end. We watched the english version which was dubbed and a bit distracting.
