The Truth Seeker

The Truth Seeker is a powerful drama series based on true events, centered on forensic odontologist Helena Ranta — a woman feared by the world’s dictators.

In 1996, Ranta, 48, is recently divorced, in the midst of an identity crisis and the owner of a new, fast sports car. When she’s asked to travel to the former Yugoslavia to uncover war atrocities as the leader of an international victim identification team, she packs her bags without hesitation. Impatient and uncompromising, Ranta often takes matters into her own hands, breaks the rules, and carries out espionage missions for human rights organizations. She tries to stay neutral in her pursuit of truth – a mission that’s nearly impossible in a world demanding allegiance.

As snipers, car bombs, and political pressure become part of her daily reality, Ranta comes to realize that truth is a weapon — and defending it is deadly dangerous.
