Whenever Netflix subscribers think they might run out of projects to keep an eye out for, the streaming giant rolls up its sleeves and gets back to business. Although the likelihood of such a situation is improbable, the OTT platform still likes to stack up its deck of cards at all times. While some Netflix originals have been making history across international borders, An Honest Life on Netflix has the streaming street abuzz with anticipation.

According to Tudum’s 2023 report, An Honest Life is an upcoming Swedish thriller based on Joakim Zander’s namesake novel. Described in the official synopsis as a coming-of-age thriller, it is reportedly a pulse-pounding tale that exposes the dark underbelly of deception, social hierarchy, the intoxicating appeal of rebellion, and the tantalizing allure of a life untethered by convention. An Honest Life on Netflix follows Simon, whose fresh start in Sweden is met with optimism. 

Simon’s excitement, however, is short-lived as he quickly becomes disillusioned with the legal academy. His life takes a dramatic turn when he meets Max, a charismatic anarchist, during a chaotic protest march. Swept off his feet by her world of rebellion and excess, Simon finds himself entangled in a web of lies and high-stakes risks. But as the truth unravels, Simon realizes he is in it too deep and escape may no longer be an option.
