Based on the absurd true story of the 1973 bank heist and hostage crisis in Stockholm. Ex-con Lars Nystrom dons a disguise to raid a central Stockholm bank. He then takes hostages, demanding the release of his partner Gunnar from prison. One of the hostages is Bianca, a wife and mother of two. As hours turn into days, Lars alternates between threatening the hostages and making them feel comfortable and secure. The hostages develop an uneasy relationship with their captor, which is particularly complex for Bianca, who develops a strong bond with Lars as she witnesses his caring nature, giving rise to the psychological phenomenon commonly known as "Stockholm syndrome".
