Varg Veum – Schwarze Schafe: Directed by Stephan Apelgren. With Trond Espen Seim, Lene Nystrøm, Bjørn Floberg, Alexander Karim. This is number 8 in the series of Varg Veum, written by Gunnar Staalesen. The plot spins around Veum’s girlfriends sister. Her sister is a prostitute, and through her discovered shady actions, drug dealing, pimping and other criminal activity.

“This movie allows to get to know Karin. Or at least this was the attempt. Karinu0026#39;s mother is dying and her last wish is to meet with Karinu0026#39;s younger sister, Siren (Kjærsti Skjelndal), which ran away from home as a teenager. For Varg this time gap is no problem and soon he tracks Siren down. Apparently, she is involved in a murder and is surrounded by mafia. We see few incredibly unnecessary scenes, but in the end this is one of the best movies in the set.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBack to this attempt of getting to know Karin. The movie had a potential to do that, but it was blown away. She is hidden in Vargu0026#39;s shadow, despite the fact that now she is the second most important character. On the other hand, male characters are nicely surprising, cause although the plot is based on women, men conduct all the actions.”
