The story

Erik Berger is a reticent, socially withdrawn man who has been working for 20 years in the same Post Office in a Swedish town, not socializing with colleagues and interested only in his wife Helen and son. In contrast his workmate Andersson is loud and gregarious, seeing himself as the office joker although his treatment of more junior staff sometimes verges on the malicious. A violent hold-up – heard, but not shown on screen – takes place, during which the office supervisor is shot dead and Andersson suffers a head injury which knocks him out and leaves him concussed.
