1979 is ending the 80’s are approaching – rapidly.
Carl and Robert – two slacker best friends who smoke hashish as a way of cheerful living - have been peddling hashish for a decade, hitting an all time high with this last batch: 45 Kilos of pure, high grade Nepalese Hashish destined for the draught-dry Oslo streets. In their own eyes they are not criminals – they simply provide the life-essential drug to a suffering population. But then Glenn comes along, their friend and ambitious financial - backer - destined - to - be - a - yuppie.

Following the delivery of the hashish, the police are on their tail for heroin-smuggling – a fact they cannot explain as they both hate heroin and would never touch the drug. Finally they both awake from their self-induced haze, and fight back in a hilarious, suspenseful and dramatic ending.
The script, based on Ingvar Ambjørnsen’s cult slacker novel, is a dark comedy story with a crooked view on the époque where the dreamy 70s met the hard 80s.
