Anxiety-ridden father Bill (Gustaf Skarsgard) volunteers to chaperone his daughter and her school friends on a rowdy field trip to a remote island, desperate to repair their icy relationship. He is joined by two fellow fathers: the secretly domineering Bobo (Fares Fares) and lackadaisical Pontus (Linus Wahlgren), who takes a fancy to one of the camp counsellors. The men believe themselves to be up for the task of handling an unruly class. But tensions quickly escalate and their grip on the situation begins to slip. As buried memories resurface, games turn into power struggles — and power into violence. Soon, no one can tell: who is in charge, and who is in danger?
