Sebbe is fifteen and lives with his mother Eva in an apartment that is much too small, so it is inevitable that there is friction from time to time. Eva delivers newspapers, but she prefers drinking beer after work. Things aren’t much better at school where Sebbe is the victim of rough-house bullying. The only place where Sebbe can hide and do what he will is the scrap yard. It is the place where his inventor’s talent is revealed: in his hands pieces of scrap metal come together to form incredible contraptions. The boy can even make things explode…
