Netflix's 2020 slate of Nordic noirs has not disappointed so far. After some stellar releases like 'Bordertown', 'Marcella' and 'Deadwind'/ 'Karppi', joining the list is 'Signs' aka 'Znaki', which, just as the name suggests, is about the titular patterns in mysterious deaths that lead a new Police Commander (Commissioner Michal Trela) to break his silence. Dark and gritty, the trailer itself is enough to set a precedent for all the horrors about to unfold in the story.

The official IMDb synopsis details: "When a young woman's murder shows similarities to a decade-old cold case, (a cruel and gruesome murder of a young student, which remains unsolved) a new Police Commander, Commissioner Michal Trela, must break the silence permeating an Owl Mountain town. Years later another crime is committed similar to the decades old cold case. Commissioner Michal Trela faces a wall of silence from the Owl Mountain community, where everyone seems guilty. Will he be able to solve the crime or will it become another cold case?" But before we can answer the haunting question, get acquainted with the cast of the Polish series.
