Headhunters
Roger Brown (Aksel Hennie) appears to have it all. He is Norway’s most
successful Headhunter, married to a beautiful gallery owner and owns a
magnificent house. But, he is living above his means and is stealing art on the
side. At a gallery opening, his wife introduces him to Clas Greve (Nikolaj
Coster-Waldau).
Not only is Greve the perfect candidate for a position that Roger is recruiting for; he is also in possession of “The Calydonian Boar Hunt”, by Rubens, one of the most sought-after paintings in modern art history. Roger sees his chance to become financially independent, and starts planning his biggest theft ever.
But soon, he runs into big trouble and it’s not financial problems that are threatening to knock him over this time…
