Jesper Jensen is a successful IT salesman who stops at nothing, even if it means backstabbing his best friend. Being number one in the company and having a beautiful wife and a lovely home, Jesper seems to lead the perfect life, but one day his arrogance and self confidence hits him in the face like a boomerang and he loses everything overnight. Jesper is sentenced to do community service at a recycling center where he meets the odd and funny characters of Dion, Theodor, and Lotte. At first he looks down on these people and doesn't want to be associated with them, but when he begins to loosen up, however, he discovers that he can learn a lot from their straightforward and honest approach to life.
