 The mayor of Bomsta, the effective and insensitive Fabian Bom, has remade his town into a social-engineer s dream. The only inefficient thing left is the old farm Rosengaard. The farm has recently been inherited by Camilla, a childhood friend of Fabian Bom. Bomsta is visited by a circus where Fabian Bom s long lost twin brother, Dumbom, is the clown. Unlike his brother, Dumbom only cares about life and beauty.
