Acquitted (2015)

In the gripping drama of 'Acquitted', we follow the tumultuous journey of Aksel Borgen, a Norwegian entrepreneur who has spent two decades building his empire in Asia, relentlessly climbing the ladder of success. His departure from his native land was shadowed by the chilling accusation of the murder of his high school love, a crime for which he was acquitted, but the verdict has done little to erase the stain of suspicion. When the cornerstone business of his former hometown teeters dangerously on the brink of bankruptcy, Aksel finds himself drawn back to the very place that once ostracized him, asked to be its unlikely savior. The past, however, remains a bittersweet memory, its echo resonating through the present. His unexpected return rips open old scars, igniting new conflicts and sparking the age-old battle of guilt, revenge, and the elusive hope of reconciliation. Caught in the crossfire of a society that still brands him guilty, despite a court's declaration of his innocence, 'Acquitted' traces Aksel's struggle to reclaim his past while salvaging the future of his home town. As the past collides with the present, the series weaves a captivating narrative of a man haunted by a crime he didn't commit, forced to confront those who still deem him a murderer.
