Conflict

On a quiet Finnish seaside town preparing for midsummer, life suddenly shifts when an unseen adversary seizes the streets and holds the celebration hostage. Conflict follows a web of residents, police, and officials as fear tightens its grip and every choice matters. The crisis pulls at loyalties, reveals old grievances, and forces people to decide who they can trust, who will protect the vulnerable, and what price they are willing to pay. The siege becomes a stage for politics and power plays outside the town as distant interests press for outcomes. In the midst of tension, ordinary heroes find resolve and the community fights to reclaim their shoreline and dignity.

Directed by Aku Louhimies, the series is created by Andrei Alén, Jari Rantala and Helena Immonen. It stars Sara Soulié as Linnea Saaristo, Peter Franzén as Captain Ohrankämmen, with Pirkka-Pekka Petelius and Julia Korpinen.
