A feverish and tragicomic Oslo where people, via a series of short scenes, succumb to stress, aggression and alienation, before being forced into some neglected folklore with deadly outcomes.

The story is about Sharif, a Somali military student in the Soviet Union in 1977. Sharif has a daughter, Farhiya, with a Russian woman, and lives in Leningrad. On Farhiyas 5th birthday, Sharif receives a call about an imminent deportation for him, and his daughter from the Soviet Union.
