PLOT

The film takes place in 1940 in Sweden, during the final stages of World War II. The film will reflect 3 different perspectives of the same story, which at the end intertwine. The first part will follow the self-righteous entrepreneur who smuggles alcohol into Sweden and sells it black and makes good money. The Nazis from Germany have free access to Swedish land and one of them hears about this black market and wants a monopoly on it. The Swedish booze smuggler agrees to this, but in secret he forges plans on how to overthrow the Nazis and try to end the war. The second part will follow the perspective of the booze smuggler's partner and how he actually controls the whole operation to stop the war without the booze smuggler actually realizing that they are the brains behind the operation. The third story is about a Jewish family who moved to Sweden to escape the Nazis, they are doing well in Sweden and run a bakery and cafe.
