Driven by revenge, quiet literary professor Ulv A. Lindgren takes the odd job as a caretaker in the concrete housing project Lindegården. He is in a desperate search for the man who once violently took his family from him. But Ulv is not alone with his sorrows. Injustice and crime have been festering Lindegården for too long. Someone must take a stand. Someone must tear up the roots of evil, so justice and peace can blossom once again.
