Smilla’s Sense Of Snow on SBS and SBS on Demand S1E2 – Smilla’s Sense of Snow is a thrilling and genre-bending series set in 2040 where society is monitored through drones and body cams, energy is a privilege, and political tensions run high.
The television adaptation of Peter Høeg’s worldwide bestseller stars Filippa Coster-Waldau, Elyas M’Barek and Henry Lloyd-Hughes and is directed by BAFTA Winner Amma Asante.
Smilla Jaspersen (Coster-Waldau), a smart and wealthy woman in her twenties, lives in a social housing complex in Copenhagen. She is alone and leads a solitary life until she meets a young Inuit boy who finds a way to her heart.
When the boy suddenly dies in mysterious circumstances, Smilla wants to know why. Her search for answers leads her to the icy scenery of Greenland and right to the centre of dangerous political power games. Smilla’s extraordinary abilities are the key to the truth – about the boy and her own identity.
Episode Two:
Karsten Tork, an ambitious entrepreneur, and Katja Claussen, a right-wing politician, form an unlikely partnership. Tork offers Katja major corporate support for her party under the condition that he becomes CEO of Prospectus. Smilla grows closer to Rahid Youseffi, a Tunisian immigrant and her neighbour, who was responsible for taking Isaiah to his regular hospital visits.
