Gorki, The Demon Detective

Overview

Hjalmar leads a double life; during the day, he is a clerk at his father’s bank while at night, he leads a notorious gang known as “Heldet” (Fortune) to pay for his prodigious womanising and gambling. When “Heldet” knocks over his own bank, Hjalmar distracts the guard while the rest of the gang cleans out the vault, then he calls the police to allay any suspicion. But master detective Gorki is on the case, and Hjalmar might not have been as careful as he thinks. (stumfilm.dk)
