Recoil

Favourite
A former convict is drawn back into his old gang and forced to confront police corruption and betrayal as he hunts for the truth behind his brother's murder

Recoil is a gripping Norwegian crime drama based on a true story, following Robin, a former convict who, after being released from prison, is determined to turn his life around. However, when he's forced to return to his old gang to repay a debt, he finds himself caught in a dangerous investigation that unravels dark secrets within Oslo's police force. As Robin and his gang dig deeper into corruption, they uncover a powerful network of officers protecting a notorious figure, Tom Karlsen. What begins as a quest for justice quickly spirals into a fight for survival as they realise they've crossed paths with forces far more dangerous than they ever imagined.

With twists that threaten to tear apart friendships and alliances, Robin must navigate a web of loyalty, betrayal, and his own moral compass. In his pursuit of the truth behind his brother's death, Robin faces a deadly price, one that will push him to the brink.

Recoil is a high-stakes, character-driven drama where the line between justice and revenge is constantly blurred, and the consequences of seeking the truth are far more deadly than anyone could have foreseen.
