The young and idealistic priest Albin Olsson has just returned home to Sweden from Kenya to become the new parish priest of the little Skåne provinces East Nöbberup . Albin want to renew the work of the Assembly and start trying to attract visitors to the church to say the least, controversial methods. It is not always appreciated by the other members of the congregation, especially not of the minister Jan Samuelsson, who want to Alan's place as vicar.
