Iceland’s submission for this year’s foreign-language category at the Oscars was Jar City, a gritty police procedural that’s equal parts film noir and CSI. It centers on a gruff, weary detective whose investigation into a messy murder reveals connections to a mysterious death of a little girl 30 years earlier. The view of Iceland is bleak and unforgiving—the perfect setting for a chilling story like this. It’s sure to entertain U.S. audiences the way it conquered the box office in its native land.
