When she dies, Viktor finds out that his father, Charlie, is alive and decides to seek him out in Copenhagen. But Charlie turns out to be anything but what Viktor dreamed of. And in an attempt to save his ailing insurance company, Charlie exploits his son, who turns out to have a talent for insurance. Viktor meets Josefine, an incredibly unlucky middle manager who turns out to be a bit like him, and the two see something in each other.
