The story revolves around Dr. Thomas Stockmann, who discovers that the town's public baths are contaminated, threatening the community's livelihood. His insistence on revealing the truth leads to his ostracization as he is labeled an enemy of the people. This conflict highlights themes of public responsibility and the struggle between individual ethics and societal pressures, reflecting Ibsen's critique of Victorian values and his advocacy for realism in drama.
