Swedish hard rock took its first big step abroad in the early 80s, when a young Yngwie Malmsteen sent a demo cassette across the Atlantic and became a guitar god overnight. Now Swedish hard rock bands perform all over the world on the biggest stages. This is the story of how Swedish hard rock became an export success.

Calle, a real-life character living in Stockholm's Old Town, finds himself - to his astonishment - in the midlle of the play "Hamlet, Prince of Denmark".
