Conspiracy of Silence
Conspiracy of silence // ingen utan skuld
After 30 years in exile, presumed dead, a personal tragedy forces haunted arms dealer Robert Kastell (Jens Hultén) to return to his home country of Sweden on a quest for vengeance. His target: international arms trade broker Anders Speths (Henrik Mestad). Quickly discovered by conspiracy theorist/former journalist Rolf Höglund (Douglas Johansson), Kastell must decide between his personal vendetta and exposing the vast corruption ingrained in Swedens international arms industry.
Prior to its launch on Viaplay in September 2018, the first episode of Conspiracy of Silence premiered at MIPTV 2018 to great critical acclaim from international buyers.
