Couple dinners with endless talk of pointless home renovations. Playing padel tennis. Quality time and shared family calendar. Anders’ dreams are long gone and he’s sick of trying to fit into an existence he loathes. The charade of middle-class adulthood could well have continued, however, until Anders finds out his daughter is being ostracized at school and has had enough. Desperate in his yearning for change he starts harassing his neighbours.
