Scandi-noir drama Before We Die begins this week at SBS On Demand.

The Swedish series centres around the disappearance of  a police officer conducting an undercover investigation of a motorcycle club.

All 10 episodes are available from Thursday.

This premiered in Europe in January.

Before We Die is not the typical crime series. It’s also a heartbreaking family drama, centered on a motherand son – a police detective and infiltrator. There are moral dilemmas to face, relationships to cherish and betrayals to uncover. The raw visual feel of Before We Die grabs the viewer’s attention – and never lets go.

When police officer Hanna (Marie Richardson, Beck, Blue Eyes) – a fading star in the organised crime unit of Stockholm Police – receives news her lover and colleague has been abducted, she must take over his undercover investigation of a criminal biker gang as well as protect an infiltrator.

The problem is Hanna’s son Christian (Adam Palsson, The Bridge, Arne Dahl) is involved – the same son that Hanna herself arrested for drug-related offences and estranged in the process. To prevent a brutal takeover in the criminal underworld, she must fight for her son’s life and break another family to save her own.

Thursday, 12 October at SBS On Demand.

  1. SBS has certainly been taking up my recent viewing time so getting these show updates is helpful, thank you David.
    I have just finished the most recent season of French drama series The Bureau and recommend it for those interested in the spy / national security genre , another season is getting a script written by its creator so hopefully SBS will be showing that too.
