Film description

Andreas, a promising young detective, has a lot on his plate. At home, he and his wife, Anne, struggle with their newborn son, who spends every waking hour crying. At work, meanwhile, Andreas struggles to rein in his newly divorced partner Simon, who spends most of his time in strip clubs, drunkenly looking for a fight. One day, Andreas and Simon are called out to a domestic disturbance. There they find Tristan, a drug dealer who has a history of violence and who has now resorted to taking his own drugs and forcing his girlfriend, Sanne, to do the same. When Andreas and Simon intervene in the couple's bickering, they witness a shocking instance of neglect that sends a livid Andreas into his family's warm embrace. Then, one night, the unthinkable happens and the little family is struck by sudden tragedy. When Andreas sees his life unraveling, he makes a choice that will lead himself and everyone he knows down a rabbit hole of moral and ethical disarray.
