In Nørrebro, in a property ripe for redevelopment, only one family remains: the Hansens. With Elvis as the head of the family. A welfare recipient who, sitting on the sofa with a beer in his hand, can fix the whole world situation, and Herdis Hansen, the all-embracing wife who provides electricity for her husband's TV and strolls around in a fur coat "given" to her by their son Brian. Despite the king's bailiff Kjeldsen's countless attempts to evict the Hansen family, Elvis manages to fend him off every time. To get them to move, he is offered director Knudsen's new headquarters, a villa in an affluent neighborhood in Charlottenlund, as a temporary solution.

Four young people, two girls and two boys, are about to graduate from high school. Their parents belong to the 1968 generation, so they have never encountered authority or serious demands, but are used to behaving as they see fit. They have a great appetite for life, but also a certain fear of the future. Their lives are only secure on the surface. One experiences a family tragedy, another has become addicted to drugs and ends up committing suicide.
