On a sweltering summer day, Erwin rolls his tanker over the Öresund Bridge into Sweden, as he has done so many times before. But what seems like a routine ride is really a nervous ride for him. He smuggles eight Syrian refugees in the tank. Erwin does it because he wants to help them. His boss Lunt does it for the money, to save his transport company. Pregnant Mouna is one of the refugees. When she and a feverish boy can't handle the stuffy air in the tank, Erwin hides them in the back of the driver's cab. Suddenly he sees a police checkpoint in front of him on the road. Erwin has reached a point where his life will take a dramatic turn.
