Nicoline is an experienced psychologist who has started a new job at a correctional facility. She meets Idris, a sex offender who has committed a string of serious crimes. After five years in treatment, he is about to start his first unaccompanied probation period. His team of practitioners are enthusiastic about his development, but newcomer Nicoline does not trust him and tries to pressure him into probation. Idris does everything he can to convince Nicoline of his good intentions, but slowly he turns into the controlling man she saw in him from the beginning. A power play between the two begins, and despite Nicoline's knowledge and experience, she is completely caught up in it.
