The Bridge (Bron/Broen)

This international crime drama, a joint production between Sweden and Denmark, opens with finding the body of a woman, which is discovered cut in half in the middle of the Øresund Bridge that connects Copenhagen in Denmark with Malmö in Sweden. With the jurisdiction of the crime in doubt, authorities on both sides — Saga Norén (played by Sofia Helin), the lead homicide detective in Malmö; and Martin Rohde (Kim Bodnia), the lead homicide detective in Copenhagen — must work together to solve it.

An adaptation of this series, set in the US, aired on FX Networks.
