Even the greatest screenwriters suffer from writer’s block, and the only cure is an impromptu trip to Paris. And so, comedy writer Jonas Lenner flees the suffocating monotony of home.

All hell breaks loose shortly after Jonas’ return, when a certain head teacher Mikkelsen suddenly manifests in the flesh on his doorstep
