After many years of separation, landscaper and part time dealer of illegal fireworks – Anders – is contacted by his father Thomas who is about to lose the family farm. To help his father, Anders returns home and starts a larger production of illegal fireworks and begins shipping it through the family's freight company. Through the traffic of fireworks, the family finds a way towards reconciliation and forgiveness for the first time since the family tragedy twenty years ago which Anders feels responsible for.
Quiet man Thomas is a cattle farmer who leads an unchanging existence in rural Jutland. Polish seasonal workers are his only company. It may look like a lonely life, and it might be a lonely life. But there is much to do at the farm, enough to forget the calls that go unanswered and the reasons there might be for the silence.
