The Chestnut Man is a Danish thriller television series based on the novel of the same name created by Søren Sveistrup and directed by Kasper Barfoed and Mikkel Serup. The series premiered on September 29, 2021 on Netflix.[1]
Synopsis[edit]
The Chestnut Man opens with the discovery of the brutal murders of an entire family in an isolated farm in 1987. More than thirty years later, in present day Copenhagen, a young woman is found brutally 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.[2]
