Synopsis

Tom blames feminism for everything that is wrong with modern society. He works in his mother ́s clothing store by day, and trolls the internet by night. When hackers expose his identity and reveal his most embarrassing secrets, he hides in what he has closest at hand: women’s clothing. The world opens up to him in surprising ways.

Note from the artistic direction

The Norwegians from the NRK present us with a psychological thriller in which Tom, a toxic masculinist played by Anders Baasmo (La Palma), decides to anonymously troll Liv, a popular stand-up comedian. A thrilling and decidedly contemporary series that will surely spark conversation and will definitely leave no one indifferent.
