Arnaldur Indridason is Iceland’s most popular crime novelist. His novel Jar City has sold 30,000 copies–that’s one for every ten Icelanders. Now the movie version of his bestseller is coming to the Twin Cities as part of the Minneapolis/St Paul International Film Festival. The movie is directed by Baltasar Kromakur, who also made 101 Reykjavik.

Screenings are April 25 and 28. I’ll see you there.–David E
