A warm-hearted comedy-drama about an unexpected family formed when a bureaucratic mix-up brings a troubled, homophobic teenager into the home of two gay men, exploring prejudice, belonging, and redemption.

Göran and Sven have been cleared for adoption and they have a possibility to adopt a swedish orphan, Patrik 1,5. But when Patrik arrives he turns out to be someone else, not the little boy they were expecting. A comma had been misplaced, and in comes a 15-year-old homophobic with a criminal past.
