Black's Game (2012)

As the eve of the millennium looms, a narrative of power, loyalty, and descent unfolds in the frost-bitten heart of Reykjavik. Our protagonist, Stebbi, a student ensnared in a drunken brawl, finds himself reluctantly thrust into the shadowy underbelly of Iceland's drug trade. Arrested and desperate, he is forced to rekindle a bond with his childhood friend, Toti, seeking legal aid in exchange for his loyalty. What starts as a desperate bargain spirals into a hazardous journey, as Stebbi is led further into Toti's crew, becoming an integral cog in a machine of vice. Once a bystander, he becomes the drug lord’s trusted right-hand man, immersing himself in a world swirling with easy money, illicit substances, and seductive entanglements. However, the allure of this brutal playground begins to wane as Stebbi's role demands adherence to a stringent protocol. The lines of morality blur, rules are broken and the once innocent world of Reykjavik's drug scene transforms into a violent battlefield. Inspired by actual events, Black's Game weaves a chilling tale of the seismic shift that swept through Iceland's underworld in the mid to late '90s, seen through the eyes of a fictional gang of pushers who seized control. It's a captivating snapshot of a time when innocence was lost, and the stakes became deadly, painting a vivid, unforgettable portrait of a city on the brink of moral collapse.

Black's Game is a crime movie featuring Thor Kristjansson and directed by Óskar Thór Axelsson.
