The drama thriller Farang premiered yesterday, Thursday March 9th, on broadcasting network C-More. The TV Series, written and created by Malin Lagerlöf and Stefan Thunberg, tells the story of Rickard, a man who was forced to flee Sweden after a bank robbery gone wrong. His decision not only means a great change to his own life, he’s also forced to leave his family behind, irreversibly changing the course of their lives as well. Ten years later Rickard is in Thailand, where he gets by as a petty criminal on the back streets of Phuket, all the while keeping his identity hidden because of the price on his head. When Rickard’s daughter Tyra, now 15 years old, suddenly shows up in front of him, Rickard has to make yet another difficult decision: should he reveal who he really is and risk his life, or try his best to cut all contact with his daughter?
