The Investigation: Official Trailer | HBO

Bring truth to the surface. The Investigation is streaming Feb 1 on HBO Max. #HBO #TheInvestigation

Based on the real-life investigation into the 2017 murder of young Swedish journalist Kim Wall, which made headlines around the world as “the submarine case”, this limited drama series follows the team of investigators and divers who worked tirelessly for six months in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles to gather evidence and bring justice for Wall’s family.

Søren Malling (A Hijacking) leads the cast as Jens Møller, the Head of Homicide for the Copenhagen Police, alongside Pilou Asbæk (Game of Thrones) as the prosecutor Jakob Buch-Jepsen. Pernilla August (Star Wars) and Rolf Lassgård (The Hunters) star as Kim Wall’s parents, Ingrid and Joachim Wall.

The Investigation is written, directed and executive produced by Oscar-Nominated Tobias Lindholm and produced by Fremantle’s Scandinavian production company, Miso Film. The series was made in close cooperation with the real-life Jens Møller and Kim Wall’s parents, Ingrid and Joachim Wall.

My two favorite phrases "Limited Series" & "Based on a true story"

*signs up for HBO Max*

[isabelled.]

What I liked about the series was that they never mentioned the killer by name or showed his face. They never showed body parts or went into sensationalist details. It was just about the investigators and the intense labor that went into building the case so that Kim and her family could have justice. Well done.

I love foreign movies for this reason....they are very real and the perspective and storytelling are very different from mainstream American movies. I binged watched all 6 episodes! Respect for keeping the story about the victim and not glorifying the killer, this needs to be done on a worldwide scale- people are taken away and forgotten because of the emphasis put on the perpetrator. I then watched the story of is where my attention went after watching this series. Well done-

[KenRuan]

I love how the cinematography, music, and acting harmonize perfectly to tell a story inside my mind, without reading the synopsis at all

HBO, literally anything-
Netflix: Write it down, write it down

[catlover]

i followed this case. i felt bad for her. how she must have felt trapped under the sea. what a twisted monster

[Gonko]

the true case is one of the most horrifying things i ever read about

[gokul]

A trailer without showing the one being investigated and the missing person is just so on point. HBO never ceases to disappoint even with it's trailers

[amcaesar]

Wow, the pieces of "Borgen" and "Bron" shuffled together, with the rock-and-roll addition of Bergman vet Pernilla August? Sign me up!

This is a subtle but stunning piece of filmmaking 💌 Moving, respectful, informative, thought provoking and essential viewing...

[certainperson]

Brilliantly done. Superb acting and writing. Very focused, no excess drama. The viewer can feel the frustration and the sadness of it all.

Never mention the killer by name. 👍

[richardmccallum]

I love true crime stories so I know exactly what this is based off of, the direction and cinematography look absolutely stunning though. It's a sad story though, as you'll all find out if you don't know.

[MsGnor]

Way too real. I know a friend of Kim Wall. My heart goes out to her family.

[DanteDecimusValerius]

Ahh I was waiting for when they’d make a movie or show about this, the events surrounding it were horrific.

[FixedFace]

note to self: don’t join a stranger for a trip in selfmade submarine

[tyrondmello]

Gives me The Undoing and some Dark vibes. I love it. Give me more of this HBO. ❤️

[alizabet.s]

This show is sick! I strongly recommend. If you hear that it's slow or boring, IT'S A LIE. Don't listen, just watch ❤ Also, BIIIIGGG Chernobyl vibes

[metalltitan]

This was so huge on the news in Germany back when it happened.

[BillLearn]

Outstanding writing, directing and acting! Plus, it's so good to listen to the dialog på Dansk.
