Notorious criminal trying to go straight...complications...

Kennet Ahl, a notorious jailbird determined to take the straight way after his release, gets tangled up in the bureaucratic judicial system. The only thing he really wants is to be with his girlfriend and his newborn child, but as things will have it, the longing for the perfect hit, "Lyftet", becomes too much... A typical 70´s (European) leftist movie, criticizing the community, sometimes parodic in dialogue and content (although you probably got to have knowledge in the Swedish language to pick all of it up). Not too shabby though, well worth a rainy autumn day in front of the old VCR...
