Rejseholdet Unit One

When a female police commissioner with ambitions on behalf of her gender selects detective Ingrid Dahl as the new head of a Danish mobile police unit, it is not without consequences for the young detective. She struggles to balance career and family and earn the cooperation of a team of detectives that includes the man who had expected to take her job. However, the initial uncertainty soon turns to trust and even friendship, and the team proves its worth investigating the nation’s most vicious cases of murder and violent crime.

Unit One was Peter Thorsboe and Mai Brostrøm’s first collaboration, and was awarded with an International Emmy in 2002 for ‘Best Drama’. It was also awarded ‘Best Drama’ by The Copenhagen TV-Festival.
