Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

Excellent camerawork and good direction do their best to enhance this erstwhile comedy about subverting Norway's liquor laws in a most unusual manner. Vincenzo (Riccardo de Torrebruna) runs an Italian restaurant in Oslo and dies in a most unfortunate way. The country's laws had driven him to convert his fine restaurant into a nightclub that sells liquor illegally, inadvertently leading to his death. Vincenzo's brother (Patricio Caracchi) shows up from Italy seeking revenge for his brother's death and after joining up with like-minded friends, he plots a dastardly subversion of the city's laws and of its milk supply.
