Son
The desire to avenge one' s father is strong.
Sonny is the ideal prisoner. He is very popular in the modern, maximum-security Staten Prison, serving as a confessor to other prisoners - listening to their confessions and granting them absolution. Rumor has it that he takes the blame for the crimes of others and serves their sentences in exchange for a regular supply of drugs. Chief Commissioner Šimon Kéfas, working in the Oslo Homicide Department, is an old-school police officer. One day, he suddenly gets a new case and a new colleague. Ab Lofthus was a police officer, a colleague and longtime friend of Kefas, and also Sonny' s father. He committed suicide years ago due to suspicion of taking bribes, and his act turned both Sonny and Kefas' lives upside down. The years in prison pass monotonously until Sonny unexpectedly hears a shocking confession and sets out to judge the living and the dead.
