Nick and his younger brother grow up in difficult circumstances; their childhood is marked by poverty, violence and alcohol. With the birth of their brother, a ray of hope shines in their lives, but a tragic event finally separates them for several years. When they meet again, thirty-three-year-old Nick is a lonely and angry ex-convict, and his brother is an addict trying his best to take care of his six-year-old son. The film is a moving and unforgiving social drama, which the director adapted from the acclaimed novel by Jonas T. Bengtsson.
