The New Force - Netflix Series


The New Force - Official Clip (as Trailer) | Netflix

The New Force (Original title Skiftet, translates to 'The Shift' in English). Stockholm gets their first female police officers circa 1958. Our hero, Carin manages to get herself into hot (nay, boiling) water in the first episode and stays there for the duration. We get to see the other cop's attitudes are along with society's attitudes about women coppers. We get to see a bit of what life and typical police work were like in the fifties. As a special bonus we get to listen to modern rap 'music'. Mostly we were busy following the story (shit's happenin' man) and the music was just background noise so we didn't notice it. There were a couple of instances when I did notice it enough that it became annoying. Complicated characters, very entertaining.

6 episodes 40 minutes each

Main cast from Google:
  • Josefin Asplund as Carin Eriksson: A female constable with a strong protective instinct, driven by a deep sense of justice.
  • Agnes Rase as Siv Morell: An ambitious female constable who aims to become a detective.
  • Malin Persson as Ingrid Gustafsson: A more reserved constable who hides her Jewish heritage.
