Storyline

Nils lives in Beitostølen, is married to Gudrun and has a son named Ingvar, who has just begun studying at BI in Oslo. He is a happy man at 45 years old, a snow plow driver, responsible for keeping the county road over Valdresflya free of snow. He has recently been selected Citizen of the Year in Beitostolen and is looking forward to retirement and grandchildren and living a carefree life until the day he receives a phone call that his son has died of an overdose. Grief over the loss of his son turns into darkness and revenge, and suddenly Nils is in the middle of a drug war in which the Count and his men are fighting against Serbian mafia. The beautiful and peaceful winter paradise of Beitostølen is transformed into a fiery war zone. Will Nils be ready to clear out of the mess he has gotten tangled in? Will the Citizen of the Year in Beitostølen ever plow the road over the mountains again?
