Ole Alexander Mæland

Melodi Grand Prix is an annual music competition organised by Norwegian public broadcaster Norsk Rikskringkasting. It determines the country's representative for the Eurovision Song Contest, and has been staged almost every year since 1960. The festival has produced three Eurovision winners and nine top-five placings for Norway at the contest. However, Norway holds the record for the number of entries who have come last since entering Eurovision; 11 in all. Despite this, the competition still makes considerable impact on music charts in Norway, and in other Nordic countries, with the 2008 winner topping the Norwegian charts.

Sveini (Svein André Olsen) has dropped out of education and is betting everything on a career as a guitarist in the local band FilibombomBoys. But when the band's frontman Ole Alexander (Ole Alexander Mæland) is offered a solo contract and collaboration with the country's biggest rock star Jølle Giertsen (Kjell Undheim), Sveini and his childhood friends in the band are suddenly on the brink. Sveini sees no other way out than to start a new band to take up the fight against Ole Alexander. Together with bassist James (James Levett) and drummer Roy (Kjetil Haaland), Sveini takes unconventional steps to find his way from the streets back to the limelight. But how far is he willing to go to be able to stand on the biggest stage?
