Based on a story by Jo Nesbo (Headhunters). Norway's leading crime writer, Jackpot is a darkly comic. Coen Brothers-inspired riff on greed, betrayal and (dis)honor among thieves, with a Nordic twist. When four coworkers at a Christmas tree factory - timid Oscar, tough guy Thor, unhinged BiIly, and tricky Tresko - win a big payday from a soccer betting pool, alIegiances quickly dissipate and a vicious battle over how to divide the money ensues. |
