In Headhunters, we meet the charming scoundrel Roger, a man who apparently has it all. He’s Norway’s most accomplished headhunter. He’s married to the unbelievably beautiful gallery owner Diana, has a far too sumptuous villa and must, to keep his head above water financially, steal a little too much art. At an opening, his wife introduces him to a Dutchman, Clas Greve. He is the perfect candidate for any top job: A former mercenary with a background as chief executive in the electronics business, with significant sex appeal as well. He’s also in possession of a painting worth seven figures in Euros. Roger eyes a chance to liberate himself from his financial worries, and embarks on his greatest coup. Breaking into Greve’s house turns out to be easy, but on his way out with the painting, Roger discovers something which will soon make him a hunted man. Everybody wants something. Nobody gets it for free. Not without stepping over corpses. The headhunt has begun. –NFI
