Description
Introduction · · · · · ·
Meet Ove, a 59-year-old with a quirky temper who wanders around the community with unbreakable principles, daily routines, and a temper that can get out of control at any time. He is secretly called the "bad neighbor from hell." He patrols the neighborhood early every morning, moving bicycles that are not parked in the grid, checking whether garbage is sorted according to regulations, complaining about someone's lawn that is not mowed, and cursing the stray cat that has lost its fur. It goes on and on.
He wants to commit suicide.
Until one November morning, when a talkative couple and their two talkative daughters moved next door and accidentally broke his mailbox.
