This is the story of metalworker Johan August and his colleague Röde Rolf, two workers who are fired when they want to sign a contract. Johan August's son Gunnar takes over and makes the company big and rich. His son, the carefree Stefan, speculates and loses everything, but is saved by his grandfather at the last minute. A piece of outstanding Swedish industrial history and a document of what must be characterized as a modern miracle, small business in Småland during the years 1939-1990.

On February 28, 1981, sixteen-year-old Roger Johansson was knifed to death at the Old Town's subway station during a fight with two boys of the same age. This was in the media referred to as the punk-killing.
