Walter Presents: ‘The Lost’ coming to C4 Streaming on Friday

Walter Presents is bringing Swedish drama ‘The Lost’ to C4 Streaming this week and it’s perfect for all you Scandi Noir lovers.

In this nerve-wracking drama thriller, a seemingly ordinary truck driver makes a fatal mistake that bears tragic consequences. On an unusually hot summer’s day, Erwin drives over the Öresund Bridge into Sweden, with eight Syrian refugees smuggled in his tanker truck. When his vehicle is stopped for a routine police check, they instruct Erwin to properly shut the half-open tanker lid – which happens to be the refugee’s only access to air. Erwin drives away from the police checkpoint with every intention to stop and re-open the lid as he knows that the survival of his passengers depend on it.

However, an upsetting phone call from his wife completely distracts him from the crisis at hand. Inside the closed tank, tragedy looms as the refugees find it increasingly hard to breathe. Initially, Erwin began illegally smuggling to genuinely help others in desperate need, but over time his efforts to stay out of jail and cover his tracks put his morals into question. Matters only get more complicated for Erwin when he discovers that a key witness is on the loose and poses a threat to his freedom. Regardless of his intentions, will justice catch up with Erwin in the end?

The six episode series stars Peter Viitanen, Ville Virtanen and Sandra Stojiljkovic, and it is created by Tova Magnusson and Ulf Ryberg.

Walter Presents: ‘The Lost’ will be available as a full boxset via C4 Streaming from Friday 12th January 2024.
