The Pushover
In an upscale neighborhood, a woman is found drowned in a pool. Suspicion falls on her boyfriend, Tom, a notorious con artist and Tinder-swindler. When he unexpectedly turns himself in, he admits to fraud, but insists her death was an accident. The experienced investigator Morten Stark is convinced he’s lying – and, lacking hard evidence, plays a risky game to expose him. Meanwhile, journalist Nora Sand digs through a former colleague’s research and uncovers multiple past fraud cases against Tom. As she and her team trace his past, they reveal a chilling secret and uncover a tangled web of deceit, exploitation and murder.
Based on Lone Theils’ book – published in 20 countries, including France, Germany, Spain, and the UK – THE PUSHOVER takes us to an upscale neighborhood, where a woman is found drowned in a pool. Suspicion falls on her boyfriend, Tom, a notorious con artist and Tinder-swindler. Directed by Magnus Berggren (Fatal Crossing, 2024), THE PUSHOVER is a tense and captivating tale of deception and manipulation, where those who get too close risk being drawn into a deadly game.
