The Chestnut Man is a Danish thriller television series based on the novel of the same name by Søren Svejstrup. It is directed by Kasper Barfoed and Mikkel Serup. The series premiered on 29 September 2021 on Netflix.[1][2][3]
Synopsis[edit]
The Chestnut Man opens with the discovery of the murder of an entire family on an isolated farm in 1987. More than thirty years later, in present-day Copenhagen, a young woman is found murdered in a playground with one of her hands missing. Detective Naia Thulin is assigned to the case. With her reluctant new partner, Mark Hess, they notice a tiny figurine made of chestnuts lying next to the body. A mysterious piece of evidence is soon discovered on the chestnut man—the fingerprint of a missing girl, the daughter of politician Rosa Hartung.[4]
