Originally released in Sweden in 2010 as Snabba Cash, the film stars Joel Kinnaman as lower class business student JW, who falls in love with a sexy heiress while living a double life mingling with Stockholm's wealthy elite. To keep up the façade of his lifestyle, he's lured into a world of crime. Jorge (Matias Padin Varela) is a petty fugitive on the run from both the police and Serbian mafia. He hopes that brokering a massive cocaine deal will allow him to escape for good. Mafia enforcer Mrado (Dragomir Mrsic) is on the hunt for Jorge, but his efforts are complicated when he's unexpectedly saddled with caring for his young daughter. As JW's journey ventures deeper into the dark world of organized crime, the fate of all three men becomes entangled and ends with a dramatic struggle for life and death.

Easy Money is adapted from the 2006 crime novel Snabba Cash — an English-language translation of which was published this year as Easy Money — by Jens Lapidus. Directed by Daniel Espinosa, the film opens in limited release on July 27th, 2012. Snabba Cash II has already been released in Sweden, and is based on the second book in the crime trilogy.
