Soon to turn eleven Reine (Tomas Fryk) doesn't wish to grow up, he thinks puberty will make him a "swine," which is how he views the few men in his life. With his mother planning on being out of town while he is supposed to be at summer camp, Reine opts to ditch the train and stay home alone for the summer - with dire consequences.
