Matson & Holm

Matson & Holm

Logline:
A Canadian medic and a maverick local detective are thrown together to unravel a series of unsettling crimes—and their own buried truths.

Synopsis:
When James Matson, a war-wounded Canadian paramedic, reluctantly relocates to Tallinn, he’s thrust into an uneasy partnership with Toomas Holm, a self-taught but brilliant Estonian detective. Together, they stumble into murder, corruption, and cultural absurdity—all while battling their own inner demons. A witty, genre-bending take on the buddy-cop formula.

Visual Style:
Nordic Noir meets odd-couple comedy. Visually crisp and atmospheric, playing with cold Baltic light, quirky interiors, and emotionally loaded silences.

Themes:
Friendship across borders, masculinity in crisis, trauma, generational guilt, and dark humor.
