Unfortunately, he is not particularly good at what he does, and is completely fed up with his frustrating job and his clients. Through a coincidence, however, he gains a new client, the beautiful blonde NINA, who offers him a lucrative job. Without questioning this tempting deal in any way, Mattila believes his luck has turned. He sobers up and begins to enjoy his newfound success, until he finds out that he is helping Swedish white-collar criminals launder money. Mattila realizes too late that there is no way out.
