There’s no such thing as ‘easy money’ in Stockholm’s dark underworld. There’s a price to pay for everything.
JW (Joel Kinnaman) is a poor student living a double life among the wealthy elite in Stockholm. Using increasingly illicit means to fund his exclusive lifestyle, he hits on a chance to score ‘easy money’ through selling cocaine. As JW enters the dark world of organised crime, his fate entwines with that of Jorge (Matias Padin Varela), a drug dealer on the run, and Mrado (Dragomir Mrsic), a mob hitman tasked with tracking Jorge down.
Easy Money is a gripping and stylish adaptation of the first novel of Jens Lapidus’s best-selling ‘Stockholm Noir Trilogy’. Director Daniél Espinosa successfully imbues the nastiness of Nordic noir with a Bret Easton Ellis-like sense of harsh glamour. Easy Money has been championed by Martin Scorsese, and you can see why: Espinosa’s keen balance of tension and violence with empathetic characterisation owes much to the legacy of his illustrious supporter.
Easy Money is directed by Daniél Espinosa and produced by Fredrick Wikström. The screenplay is by Maria Karlsson, based on the Novel “Snabba Cash” by Jens Lapidus and is released into cinemas by ICON and Lionsgate UK on 19th July 2013.
