DESCRIPTION:
(from Viaplay US's web site, March 2025) In the spring of 1999, a 16-year-old girl was found raped and murdered between a small village and a refugee center in a Dutch province. The murder tore apart not only entire families and a community but also kept the whole nation in its grip. The Hunt chronicles the long and frustrating search for the perpetrator, with each episode telling the story from a different main character's perspective and exploring the impact of the murder on their lives. The crime remained unsolved until two main detectives managed to initiate a large-scale DNA investigation, which finally broke the case open. The Hunt stands out as a reconstruction of a case once deemed the 'murder of the century,' offering not just a gripping crime story but also a deeply human exploration of the aftermath on ordinary lives. Its themes, xenophobia, racism, fake news, and the rural-urban divide, are globally relevant and resonate with contemporary societal issues. With conspiracy theories more prevalent than ever, The Hunt taps into timely conversations, making it a powerful and thought-provoking title for today’s audiences worldwide.
