Tony has recently been released from a sentence for violent behaviour. He promises to improve his ways and is finally granted a few hours alone with his two children. They celebrate the reunion by going to the movies to see a new film by the famous, critically acclaimed Danish director Claus Volter. But the film is not the masterpiece it is said to be on the poster; the children are crying and Tony cannot get the money back he spent on tickets and candy. Tony does not give up; he seeks out Claus Volter in order to get an explanation and a refund. It is however easier said than done to get money out of a world-renowned filmmaker.

In Jesper Dalgaard's staged documentary we encounter tragic female destinies, affluent and absent fathers, while actors such as Birthe Neumann, Asta August and Jakob Cedergren bring the past to life in this breathtaking experiment.
