Christian and Mikael are brothers working for the same company. Michael is the charming extrovert who does not mind a little shady action on the side. Christian is a Moral Majority man, but when he fails his brother in a tight spot, he also indirectly causes his death. Now off his high horse, guilt-ridden Christian is soon submerged in moral double dealing that leads to violence and crime.
