The Swedish-German crime series “Iris – Die Wahrheit,” starring Sofia Helin, is being released on ZDF. The production features Helin as investigator Iris Broman, a character who has lost her position as head of her unit following an independent action in Spain and now works alongside colleague Kerstin.

The second season, consisting of six episodes, begins with the discovery of a skeleton near Ystad. While investigators initially suspect a landowner missing for a decade, forensic evidence identifies the victim as a younger individual named Jonathan. As the investigation progresses, the plot follows Iris as she manages personal trauma and pursues a crime boss, Van Voorst, who is believed to be responsible for the death of her partner.
