Trouble starts when Lars, a 25-year-old with few prospects for the future, discovers that an older man is fooling around with the teenage boys in his suburb. A terrible rage is triggered in Lars, and he embarks on a crusade to stop the abuser. But it soon spins out of control, and Lars' actions end up endangering those he set out to protect.

VIBE

A simmering rage boils over into a dangerous crusade. This film feels like a powder keg, exploring the dark side of good intentions and the devastating consequences of unchecked fury. It’s a heavy, unsettling watch that lingers long after the credits roll.
