She wants to be the center of attention - for everyone to see HER, to see the beautiful person she is inside. It's just a little hard to see. Maja is severely overweight, clumsy and completely without social skills... We get to follow Maja and her struggle to realize her dreams during the last semester of high school.

After an elder man gets hit by a stolen car, the police decides to investigate it. The stolen car is later found next to a murdered young girl, prompting Inspector Irene Huss and her co-workers to investigate and slowly get pulled into a world of evil.
