The Day
Created by Julie Mahieu, Jonas Geirnaert
On Play
A tense Nordic noir hostage thriller that sustains high-wire suspense across a single day by fracturing perspective between law enforcement and criminals, forcing the viewer to hold contradictory sympathies.
The nerve-racking events of a cold winter's day, seen from two different perspectives. The odd episodes tell the story of a team of police negotiators and special forces who respond to a hostage crisis in a small bank branch. The even episodes tell exactly the same events, only through the eyes of the criminals inside and their victims.
