One summer day, teens Ippe and Papu decide to experiment with drugs and become indebted to drug dealer Kalle. For the debt, Kalle forces them to bring drugs from Stockholm. They fail. Papu confuses the logs and takes the blank instead of where the LSD was. Ippe passes the magazine to Kale. Shortly thereafter, the dealer is killed. Papu gets even more immersed in the world of drugs, and Ippe, without losing optimism, is still trying to live a normal life with his friend Mija.
