Eight medical students on a ski trip to Norway discover that Hitler's horrors live on when they come face to face with a battalion of undead Nazi soldiers intent on devouring anyone unfortunate enough to wander into the remote mountains where they were once sent to die. It's Easter vacation, and what better way to spend the break than skiing down the isolated hills just outside of Øksfjord, Norway? After packing their cars with enough beer and ski equipment to ensure that a good time will be had by all, the students set out for their destination and prepare for a relaxing snowbound getaway. Shortly after arriving at their remote cabin, however, the students receive an unexpected visit from a rather suspicious hiker. According to their shady visitor, the Nazis occupied this territory during World War II. In the aftermath of their brutal raping and pillaging, the locals revolted, driving the few surviving Nazi soldiers -- including their iron-fisted leader, Colonol Herzog -- deep into the hills. Neither the soldiers nor their leader were ever seen again. Everyone in town assumed that they simply froze to death. But there's something stirring out there in the trees, and it won't be long until the unsuspecting students discover how the story really ends. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A man's effort to reunite his family unwittingly uncovers some painful secrets in this drama from Sweden. Magnus (Per Graffman) is a photographer who wants to do something special for his mother Elisabeth (Basia Frydman) in honor of her upcoming seventy-fifth birthday. Magnus thinks it would be good to get the family together for a group portrait, since there aren't any pictures of his parents and siblings all together, and his father is in poor health. But as Magnus tries to reunite his family for a sitting, the sad history of his mother's life is played out for the cameras. As a young woman, Elisabeth (played in her youth by Alexandra Rapaport) was left pregnant by a brief dalliance with her lover, and she was forced to give up the child. Despondent, Elisabeth found comfort when she fell in love with Lars (Mikael Persbrandt), but after they were married, he revealed himself as an alcoholic who didn't much care for children and often lashed out at their son. Elisabeth's depression returned as her relationship with Lars became increasingly distant, and all these years later, Magnus's efforts to bring the family together for a reunion opens more wounds than it heals, especially as he tries to find the daughter his mother gave away before she was married. Inga Tarar (aka No Tears) was the first directorial effort from veteran producer Hakan Bjerking. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Oslo narcotics cop Hans Petter (Nicolai Cleve Broch) is a loose cannon, and his boss Makker (Ingar Helge Gimle) is determined to prevent the volatile young law enforcer from taking the law into his own hands. When Hans runs into old school friend Mette (Ane Dahl Torp), he determines to go undercover in his old pal's nightclub in order to get a better feel for the local drug trade. Upon learning that Matte's boyfriend Marco (Ahmed Zeyan) is a local drug transporter and her father Frank (Bjorn Floberg) is pulling the strings from behind the scenes, dogged cop Hans determines to single-handedly bring the operation crumbling down. A professional job soon turns personal, however, when Hans discovers that his own father also had powerful ties to the sadistic Frank. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
