Viggo (Viggo Lundberg) has a bit of trouble when his father moves them from their home in the city back to his old village, butsoon finds new ways to enjoy the solitude he craves. His cheerful, outgoing father (Ernst Günther) is happy to go to local dances and play bingo, but has a more difficult time understanding his reclusive son. Viggo has saved a wounded hawk and restored it to health. Unfortunately, he can't bring himself to let it go now that it is all right. He makes friends with the town weirdo, who learns of the hawk's existence and promises not to reveal anything about it if Viggo will listen to him playing the organ in the village church the next day. When Viggo runs away from the playing in the middle of a song, he has broken his promise, and, though he resists it, he must now release the hawk.
