Mika and Tesfay. She: a photographer. He: a musician. Both up-and-coming. The first love. But an invisible conflict, an unnamable shame, stirs between their sheets. An insidious power game is in play, with its rules changing like music beats at the parties in Gothenburg, Stockholm and Ibiza. Behind closed doors and beautifying filters lies a raw reality where Mika’s control over her mind and body is at stake. But Mika rips apart relationship prejudices and explores what really makes our pulses quicken in matters of the modern heart.

In an ordinary Swedish apartment complex, the fate of seven young people lies in the hands of an adult society that has forgotten them. Dreams and a desire to "belong" carry them through a powerless existence filled with bullying, assault and sexual harassment. When a gun appears one day, they finally have power in their hands. A power that comes at a high price. Who will get the first bullet in them..?

What about the future, is there any? A story about six teenagers in a suburb to Stockholm. Six Swedish youngsters with parents from different parts of the world. What are their chances for a dissent life, outside their suburb?
