Short synopsis of the film:

The first feature film by Swedish comedy group "Killinggänget" tells four different stories that are a kaleidoscopic magnification of human - Swedish - behaviour. A well-dressed man, having just completed his life's work, meets his destiny, in the shape of a little man made out of wood. In the south of Sweden a zealous father tries to encourage his son, by showing him the joys of small animal cremation. In Gothenburg, a diverse group of people convene, in the belief that they will learn how to cook. And somewhere in the north, a patriarch dies. His sons attend the funeral, which manifests strong oriental influences.
