• Sometimes gangsters need hugs too

It's difficult to age with dignity - even for criminals. Ulrik has served a 12-year sentence for murder. Now he's out. He's in his 50´s. With no future, a family that doesn't want anything to do with him, no place to live and no job. Fortunately his old crew wants to help him. His gangster boss gets him an apartment and a job as a mechanic. The crew give him a potted plant. He is given a new start. Everyone wants to help him. Women come his way. But there's an old score that has to be settled. The man who squealed and sent him to jail has been found. Now he must die. Ulrik is a somewhat gentle man. He has killed some people and crippled a few. But this sort of stuff is part of the job when working in the criminal world. Just like doing time in prison. Now Ulrik is out again. Reluctantly… And Jensen is waiting on the outside. He’s a thug with professional pride. He takes care of his people and is concerned with keeping things in order. It is important for the boss that Ulrik settles his account by shooting the guy who ratted him out. Ulrik is a somewhat gentle man. He has no special wishes and makes no demands. He does not give too much thought to what he does either. He just does it. If he’s given some food and a place to sleep, then he will give people what they want from him in return. Whether this be a little affection or a killing. Then he looks up his son who has now become a grown man. A good man with an education, a girlfriend, and a future. But the son has a father who’s a murderer. His girlfriend doesn’t like it. Her family is not into stuff like that, they’re more into nurseries and plants. They have principles. Ulrik is a somewhat gentle man – but how gentle can he be?
