Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent Maipo Film, the leading Norwegian banner behind “Heirs of the Night” and “Lykkeland,” has teamed up with Tel Aviv-based Spiro Films (“When Heroes Fly”) to develop “Blindspot,” a thought-provoking series about the enigmatic Lillehammer case of 1973.
The gripping series unfolds in the aftermath of the tragic Munich Massacre, when a group of Mossad agents were dispatched to Lillehammer with the mission to eliminate Ali Hassan Salameh, the leader of the Black September organization.
But upon their arrival, the agents mistakenly identified Ahmed Bouchikhi, a Moroccan waiter, as their intended target. On the evening of July 21, just a day after the misidentification, the Mossad agents carried out the assassination before Bouchikhi’s pregnant wife, ending an innocent life.
What was initially intended as a swift and covert operation for the Mossad soon transformed into a political nightmare. This drama series will unravel the complex web of events surrounding the Lillehammer case, shedding light on the untold stories of those whose lives were forever changed. “Through meticulous research and riveting storytelling, the series aims to delve into the human cost of such operations and the enduring effects on individuals caught in the crossfire of international espionage” Maipo Film and Spiro Films said in a statement.
