Enemy of the People

After writing a critical article on the local town’s biggest celebrity, reporter Katja Salonen finds herself drawn into a whirlpool of lies, deceit and abuse of power - in the middle of which lies a deadly conspiracy and an unsolved murder. Condemned by the local townspeople for revealing the truth, Katja must suffer the ramifications of a modern day witch hunt as the public seek to dismantle her credibility and pride through a systematic hate campaign. Faced with antipathy at every turn, Katja fights to reveal the perpetrators of a pyramid scheme, at the heart of which lies a fortune in cryptocurrency, whilst those responsible seek to protect themselves by any means necessary. As she searches for the truth, Katja risks not only her reputation, but her life.

Written by multi-award-winning duo Timo Varpio (Roba, 2015) and Laura Suhonen (Dressed For Mourning, 2016) and directed by Mikko Kuparinen (Man In Room 301, 2020), ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE tells the story of a journalist who must overcome all odds to solve a mystery and unmask those who would abuse their power.
