In returning, we also wanted to bring Galway something with real bite—and few European thrillers hit harder than Headhunters, the breakout smash that thrust Norwegian cinema onto the world stage. Adapted from Jo Nesbø’s bestseller, it follows a ruthless headhunter and part-time art thief who’s suddenly plunged into a deadly game of cat and mouse. Slick, darkly funny and breathlessly tense, it’s European genre filmmaking at its most gripping.
