THE BEAR X PEAKY BLINDERS

Upon his release from prison, Jónas wants to open a restaurant in Reykjavík. To achieve this dream, he must get involved in dangerous criminal activities. The best of cuisine and thriller!

Imprisoned for a crime he did not commit, Jónas continued his work as a chef and, once released, wanted to make a fresh start by opening a restaurant in the Icelandic capital. He had to fall back on the establishment of the mysterious Marý, who would lead him, at his own risk, into the world of crime. Set against the backdrop of the splendid landscapes of the land of fire and ice, the creators add their own twist to the culinary series by embellishing it with suspenseful criminal intrigues, spicing up an already breathless narrative. An exquisite blend of genres, enhanced by a carefully selected cast and mouthwatering twists and turns!
