Landin Production in collaboration with DEP Films presents the Swedish Action film "Black Hills". Synopsis: In the heart of the most notorious correctional facility, Black Hills, Inmates are pitted against each other by sadistic guards, who stream the brutal brawls to a seedy underground audience for profit. Enter Marius Kiljan, a former fighter with a shadowy past. When he uncovers the fight club's sinister operations, Marius teams up with two fellow prisoners: Carlo and Roman. Together they plot an escape that could dismantle the system. But standing in their way is the prison's ruthless head of security, Angerman AKA 'Mr. A'. It's a punch of 80s action cinema, infused with a modern Swedish edge.
