Star journalist William Klement's career is struggling, and he needs a scoop to make a comeback. One day he comes across an elderly asthmatic outcast called Glassblåser'n (the Glassblower). He is an eternal outcast that has lost his name on the path of life, but who still has his imagination, disrespectful irony, and heart intact, despite his atherosclerosis and asthma. The life of an outcast is not the subject matter for this tough journalist, who has seen most of this world's hypocrisy and ugliness, but he feels sorry for Glassblåser'n and wants to help him. But then he meets Glassblåser's friends. They are outcasts too, a number of different types, and among them is also Ganard. He is an idealist, from countries further south, where he was inspired by Abbé Pierre, a leading figure in working with the outcasts of society. He has teamed up with them to help them help each other. Ganard has come to Oslo to make the same effort there, to gather outcasts and set them in motion by setting up a flea market to raise money for those that are even worse off: the very poorest of the helpless in Lima, Peru. It is in this environment that Klement has now ended up, while the outcasts are in the middle of setting things up. Klement is a man with life experience, and he no longer believes in the beautiful tale of the lame helping the blind. But this is material to work with. And then Klement is captured by the idea. The market itself was a great success. The amount that came in and was to be sent in full to the stranger's unknown comrades in Lima was astonishingly large. However, a few hours after the market ended and the money was counted, it disappeared. Someone had stuffed it into his own pocket. The editorial secretary dismissively said to Klement: "I didn't believe it! A dingy little scam!" But Abbé Pierre had also said to Ganard: "There will sooner or later come a day when everything is destroyed, stained, betrayed, shattered. If you're there the next day, you're in it. Then you are accepted. That's the secret." But this strange episode had another twist in store, to the surprise of Klement, the editorial secretary, and perhaps the outcasts as well. Cast
