When Jens makes a contentious decision to deport a political activist who may be a potential political refugee, he sets off a chain of events that will test his moral compass and push him to his limits.

The consequences of Jens' ruling become apparent when the activist attempts to take his own life, leaving the judge grappling with immense guilt and self-doubt. As the activist's condition worsens, Jens's professional crisis deepens, and he must confront the ethical implications of his actions.
