Knockout

Boxing, music and “bizzness” in the frozen north.

“Plutten” Jonsson, former European boxing champion is reduced to touring the north of Scandinavia as a re-invented Country and Western singer with his chain smoking manager Råttan (“The Rat”). One day they meet one of Plutten’s former opponents, a Russian boxer and decide to join forces by travelling to Murmansk – the “city of opportunities”.
