Then he meets Gloria. Gloria who drives a scooter and sees Daggi as an opportunity to get away. Together they discover the beauty of love, – they escape to Sweden and life seems for the first time easy and good. Until his past hunts him down, lead by Dennis, and drags him back to a life he neither can be a part of – nor get away from.
