Each family member carries some responsibility, but the heaviest burden falls on Mats, the father. Vera lives with Morgan, an older criminal who ruthlessly misuses her vulnerability.

"I think that Björn has written and directed a film which rubs the wrong way. It is a film which places demands on its audience, a film which is pushy in many ways but at the same time deeply sincere and honest. He manages to reach us where we are with themes, characters and dialogues which are self-evident and very contemporary. It is damned stimulating to work with Björn!"
