Netflix is investing in two new Swedish films – including "Trustor", a documentary by Karin af Klintberg and Teresa Alldén about one of Sweden's most notorious eco-crimes. Here, Joachim Posener steps forward and tells his story in his own words about the Trustor scandal. Karin af Klintberg asks herself: "How can five people swindle 600 million and still go free?"

"It's men who are cheating the system, a classic cat-and-mouse game and a financial sector that got duped. Regardless of whether it was a clever or clumsy heist, the thieves got away with a treasure chest without either a robber's mask or firing a single shot. But there were also victims, one mustn't forget", she says in a press release.

Netflix is also making "Out and Cycling" by director Mårten Klingberg, which is a follow-up to the drama comedy "Off Track". It's about Lisa, who is to cycle the world's largest recreational cycling event, Vätternrundan.

Corrected: In an earlier version, there was an incorrect statement about when Posener previously told the story of the Trustor scandal.
