Based on a true occurrence in Sweden in 1988. A Finish couple murders a young boy and his parents when they prevent the theft of their son's bicycle. The film tries to describe the relationship between the dominant Jari, who calls himself "Il Capitano", and his more mature "soldier" Minna, that develops into mutual dependence.
