Franco lives in one of Copenhagen's more congested areas with his mother, who has little choice but to take care of her job as a prostitute. It also does not take long before he ends up in the criminal environment. He quickly gets into trouble with the authorities, who see no other way than to try to get him on the right course by sending him to a foster family in Jutland. Here he is met by a really nice foster family, the open landscapes and not least their young teenage daughter.
