| SYNOPSIS 9-year old Simon has a make-believe lion as his constant companion. In reality he is bullied in school by the two year older Alex. His mother Karin meets a new man, Björn, who seems to be a new hope for Simon. Everything changes when it turns out that Björn is the father of Alex and the plan is for them all to live together. Now Simon really has to be strong as a lion. |
