Synopsis

Roger is a man who seems to have everything; he’s the most successful headhunter in Norway, married to the almost-too-beautiful art gallery owner Diana, living in an expensive house. But to keep his finances afloat Roger has taken up a sideline; stealing art, and a little bit too much of it.
Claes Greve is another man, who’s seemingly the perfect candidate to headhunt for one of Roger’s clients. On top of that Greve is the proud owner of a valuable painting. Roger sees his chance to get out of debt for good and starts planning his final, big theft.
But he soon discovers that Greve is playing a game of his own...
