Khaled, a Syrian refugee, stows away<br />
on a freighter to Helsinki. Meanwhile,<br />
Wikstrm is a traveling salesman who wins<br />
big at a poker table and buys himself a<br />
restaurant with the proceeds. When the<br />
authorities turn down his application for<br />
asylum, Khaled is forced underground<br />
and Wikstrm finds him sleeping in the<br />
yard behind his restaurant. He offers him<br />
a job and a roof over his head and, for<br />
a while, they form a Utopian union with<br />
the restaurant’s waitress, the chef and<br />
his dog.<br />
