One of Norway's most promising politicians is close to becoming the next prime minister, until scandalous stories of his past surface in the wake of the #MeToo movement. Director Håvard Bustnes sets out to make a film about him, but over time, he himself gets more and more drawn into Giske's publicity campaign.
