Erik (Jonas Rimeika) gets a call from Sandra (Malin Morgan) from his
hometown - a quiet, god-forsaken little village - that his sister Slim
Susie (Tuva Novotny) has gone missing, and Sandra even fears she is dead.
Back in his hometown, nothing seems to have changedsince he has left
(at least not for the better): all his friends have turned out to be
unemployed drug addicts, his mother (Lena Wallman Alster) has started to
drink heavily, and for some reason nobody seems to care too much about
Slim Susie's disappearance, not Mamma, not her on-and-off boyfriend Pölsa
(Björn Starrin), not her square colleague at work Gudrun (Lotta Tejle),
and not even local cop Billy Davidsson (Kjell Berqvist), who even
threatens to throw Erik out of town.
Erik however is determined to find out what has happened against all
odds, and after many leads that lead to nowhere, he finds Micke 13 (Johan
Andersson), one of his sister's friends, who has nailed himself to the
floor while trying to kill himself ... and Micke wants redemption, so he
tells Erik everything:
Slim Susie's colleague Gudrun has stolen a lot of money from a woman
who had died in a retirement home, but had given Susie what she said was a
fair share. Only when Susie went around to pay her debts, she ran into
video rental owner Gerd (Lena Dahlman), who convinced her that Gudrun tied
to cheat her, and so they made a plan to rob Gudrun, with the help of
Pölsa, Micke 13 and Tore Tumor (Anders Blomberg).
According to this plan, Susie was to break into Gudrun's appartmentand
get the money ... which she does, but then she tried to cheat the others
out of their fair share, and hid the money in a draining pipe ... only she
was so stoned when doing that that she forgot where she hid it. Anyways,
her accompices got so worked about being cheated that they wnt to force
the truth out of Susie at gunpoint - but the gun goes accidently off and
she dies ...
But while Micke still tells his story to Erik, Gudrun tells a different
version of the truth to cop Billy Davidsson: in fact it was her who killed
Susie, because she wanted the money back. Later she placed dead Susie in
her bathtub, looking very much alive ... which is where the others killed
her. However, when Billy Davidsson learns that Pölsa is shagging his
wife, he decides to let Gudrun go and pin the whole thing on Pölsa and
company.
It all culminates in a shoot-out in which everyone (including Pölsa
and Billy Davidsson) dies, only Erik and Sandra somehow come out
unscathed, and in the end they even find the money Susie has hidden,
enough to start a new life somewhere else, far far away ...
A mix of conventional murder mystery and over-the-top gross-out comedy
... and against all expectations, it works. well-drawn, absurd characters
help bring this film to life, and the determination to tell a stringent,
logical story despite all the elaborate plot twists, comic interludes,
drug allusions and absurd situations. Pretty good, and pretty funny.
