“Revenge in black and white”. Nils and his snow plough race over snowy roads around a small, icy Norwegian town. He ploughs the streets for his fellow citizens, a job he considers admirable and one appreciated by those around him. He is even named Citizen of the Year, but that fateful day is also the day he learns of his son’s death. Disbelieving the official explanation that he died of a drug overdose, Nils decides to take justice into his own hands. But winning a war with the mafia is no easy undertaking. Nils, however, has nothing left to lose. What’s more, he has much stronger weapons in his arsenal – a powerful machine and beginner’s luck.

A story of “just” revenge complete with an avalanche of corpses, a large helping of black humor, surprising twists and a lot of swank, this is an entertaining and intelligent action thriller set amidst the harsh, snowcapped Norwegian mountains.
