Jackpot competition: Win Jo Nesbo books

Jackpot-web_thumb

Jackpot, an adaptation of a Jo Nesbo short story, is a Tarantino-esque black-comedy thriller which screens at GFT from Friday 10 - Thursday 23 August.

Because we know how popular Nesbo is, we've teamed up with Waterstones Argyle Street to offer you the chance to win seven of the Scandi thriller writer's paperbacks: The Redbreast, Nemesis, The Devil's Star, The Redeemer, The Snowman, The Leopard and The Phantom. Not a bad haul!

Come along to one of our Jackpot screenings to be entered into our prize draw to win all seven books. The winner will be chosen on Friday 24 August.

Good luck!

Jackpot
Friday 10 - Thursday 23 August
 
At a plastic Christmas tree factory in Norway, three dangerous ex-cons and their supervisor win 1.7 million kroner on the pools. As trust and friendship quickly dissolve, guns are loaded, knives are sharpened, and the division of the money begins... With echoes of Tarantino and the Coen Brothers, Magnus Martens’ Jackpot, (based on a story by popular Norwegian author Jo Nesbo) is a slick, ultra-violent black comedy, with a mischievous plot that twists and turns right up until the final gunshot rings out. EIFF 2012

"A savagely funny and brutally stylish pulp thriller." Screen International

    Have just started these books - v good even as a translation - Redbreast very good. A little bit like the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series
