Stockholm, 1997. Financial criminal Joachim Posener, newly released from prison, dreams of building an empire - becoming powerful, respected and successful. Driven by a need to prove himself to his parents and provide for his seven-year-old son, he joins forces with his reckless, boundary-pushing cousin, Thomas Jisander.

Together, they party hard, dream big, and devise a wildly illegal scheme to seize control of a major Swedish investment company - using an enigmatic British aristocrat as their front man. Calling themselves the “Golden Boys,” they pull off the largest financial crime in Swedish history. But as a determined journalist begins to uncover the truth and the media and police close in, cracks form within the group. When the scheme collapses, Posener abandons everyone closest to him - Jisander, his parents, and his son - and flees the country. He has never returned.
