Anyone who has ever written a few words on the internet has probably been
harassed by trolls at some point. Ivo van Aart's satirical Dutch thriller
The Columnist sees a writer (Katja Herbers) take
violent revenge on the keyboard warriors responsible for her online
harassment. You can read our review
here.
The Columnist is in UK/ROI cinemas (fingers crossed) and on
Digital from March 12th.
Check out the new UK trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Newspaper columnist and author Femke Boot is suffering from writers’ block, and her mood isn’t improved by the torrent of abuse and death threats she receives daily on social media. When she discovers that her obnoxious, loud neighbour is one of the anonymous people posting vile comments, she snaps and takes matters into her own hands. As she finds herself able to write again, she sets out on a mission - track down the trolls and deliver some swift, polite and deadly vengeance.
