The drama builds on one of the greatest horror scenarios of our time, an act of terrorism in the heart of a big city. In Copenhagen, 15 people have their lives turned upside down one morning in October when a metro train is hijacked by unidentified men, threatening to kill them one by one if their demands aren't met.
