The story is about a group of youth criminals who are chosen to participate in a social experiment, named "Guest house Objectivity"(Pensionatet Sakligheten), where they are assigned to live together in an apartment while being supervised by two forgiving social workers. The six youth criminals have a highly critical approach to social care, but is equally disdainful towards the society around them. The atmosphere at the " guest house" is characterized by sadism, open or random violence. The tagline is: It is written that 490 times you can sin and be forgiven. This motion picture is about the 491st. This highly controversial film, which featured a male homosexual rape scene, was first banned in Sweden, but released after reediting. Amongst other things, a scene in which a woman is raped by a dog was cut.
