Ondskan (Evil) (2023) is a television adaptation of Jan Guillou’s acclaimed novel, reimagined for a contemporary audience. Produced by Dream Free Productions, the series explores themes of violence, power, and moral resistance within the rigid structure of an elite boarding school.

Starring Isac Calmroth, the series expands the original narrative through long-form storytelling, allowing for deeper psychological development and emotional intensity. Through its unflinching portrayal of institutionalized cruelty and personal defiance, Ondskan stands as both a coming-of-age drama and a sharp critique of authoritarian systems.

Released in 2023, Ondskan reinforces Dream Free Productions’ commitment to character-driven storytelling and socially resonant Scandinavian drama.
