This crime thriller follows Erwin (Peter Viitanen, Top Dog, The Unlikely Murderer), a truck driver who, on an unusually hot summer’s day, drives over the Öresund Bridge into Sweden with eight Syrian refugees smuggled in his tanker truck.

Erwin drives away from the police checkpoint with every intention to stop and re-open the lid, as he knows that the survival of his passengers depend on it.

The Congregation: Bride of Christ (Season 2) (Knutby) (Sweden)
Based on the book Knutby by Jonas Bonnier, which also inspired the HBO docuseries, Pray, Obey, Kill, this series dramatizes events that happened within a controversial Christian cult in the early 2000s in the small, rural town of Knutby in Sweden. The show revolves around Eva (Kristallen Award winner Aliette Opheim, Thicker than Water, Caliphate, Patriot), a charismatic pastor for the small but growing group of Pentecostal believers in Knutby, whose manipulation and power within the cult feed her aspirations to a higher calling.
Following the events in the first season‘s finale, the second and final season, titled The Congregation: Bride of Christ, finds all eyes on the congregants in Knutby, who, rather than falling apart, unite with even more fervor and intensity. Eva publicly denies being the actual “Bride of Christ,” but, behind the scenes, she goes to new extremes to get everything in order to prepare for the return of Christ — including judging sect members as “right” or “wrong” and singling out the congregation’s “cow team,” who receive extra punishment.
Soon after Eva recruits a new pastor, Örjan Åkerby (Alexander Jubell, Thin Blue Line), to replace Sindre (Einar Bredefeldt, Gåsmamman) by her side, a group of “daughters” is formed, where the young female congregants receive spiritual and bodily guidance from Örjan. Yet there is turmoil within the congregation, and Eva feels the noose is tightening around it. She also has premonitions of a Judas amongst her twelve closest disciples — but who is it?
The cast of the six-episode second season also includes Amy Deasismont (Thunder in My Heart), Malin Persson (Riding in Darkness), Edvin Bredefeldt (Beck), Jessica Liedberg (The Breakthrough), Joakim Sällquist (Box 21), Joakim Lang (Trap), Ulrika Nilsson (Thin Blue Line), and Ylvali Rurling (The Beach Hotel), amongst others.

An Alibi (Un alibi) (France)
This psychological drama opens with three friends — Maude (Annelise Hesme, Mismatch, Nina), Pierre (Grégori Derangère, Blood of the Vine, Candice Renoir), and Tom (Yannick Choirat, Women at War, Witnesses) — arriving at the home of Max (Pascal Demolon, Mismatch, La Mante) and Lucie (Sara Martins, Alexandra Ehle, Death in Paradise) for Lucie’s birthday. But instead of a celebration, they step inside a crime scene: Lucie is dead, and husband Max is frozen in shock beside her body, with bloodstained hands and a shaky story. Everything about the scene screams guilt.
But instead of calling the police, the friends, bound by decades of unquestioned loyalty and shared memories, decide to lie and make up an alibi to protect Max. They believe him, or at least they want to. As Lieutenant Garnier (Aurélia Petit, Under Paris) leads the police investigation, the threads of the friends’ deception begin to fray. The stress of the lie, the fear of discovery, and the creeping possibility that Max might not be so innocent after all slowly poison their bond. Paranoia sets in. Doubts multiply.
An Alibi has its US linear debut on Saturday, July 26, at 9pm ET, on Eurochannel.
Gold Lust (Escanyapobres) (Spain)

When ruthless loan shark Oleguer (Alex Brendemühl, Red Queen, Furies) descends upon the town, he uses debt as his weapon of choice to take everything from the residents: their homes, their livelihoods, even their dignity.
Forced from her home, Cileta is determined to fight back, even if it means stepping into the shadow of the man who wronged her and her family. As she navigates a dangerous world of deception and power, she learns that survival demands a sharp mind and steely will. With each calculated move, she risks becoming what she hates most: someone who understands the language of control and manipulation and uses it to get justice and vengeance.
Gold Lust has its US linear debut on Sunday, July 27, at 9pm ET, on Eurochannel. (Folks who don’t have access to Eurochannel can stream the movie.)
