Beforeigners S2
In Season 2 of Beforeigners, the mysterious arrivals from the past continue to shake modern society, as Oslo police detectives Lars Haaland and Alfhildr Enginnsdottir uncover a conspiracy surrounding Project 19 - the program behind the “beforeigners.” When the murder of a woman with Stone Age tattoos points to deliberate manipulation of time rifts, Lars and Alfhildr find themselves entangled in a larger plot involving historical figures strategically brought to the present to influence society. As crime rings, neo-Luddite movements, and powerful institutions vie to exploit the phenomenon, the detectives navigate a world where the past and present collide in unexpected ways - including the shocking arrival of Jack the Ripper.
Season 2 deepens the intrigue, exploring both the personal and societal consequences of time travel and the struggle for control over history itself.
