The mayor of Bomsta, the efficient but insensitive Fabian Bom, has remade his town into a social-engineer's dream. The only inefficient thing left is the old farm Rosengård. 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.
