Plot

Drawing inspiration from true events, Forest Killer delves into the chilling case of Viktor Kalivoda, who, in 2005, brutally killed three unsuspecting individuals in Czechia’s forests. The murders shocked the nation, particularly due to the absence of a clear motive. Following his capture, Kalivoda confessed to the crimes but remained tight-lipped about his reasons. The narrative intricately explores the year preceding the horrific acts, providing a gripping look into Kalivoda’s life as he spiraled into darkness, ultimately leading to his arrest and the ensuing media frenzy surrounding the case.
