Frank "The Fixer" Tagliano testifies against the mob and is relocated to Norway as part of his deal. Becoming the Norwegian citizen "Giovanni Henriksen," he soon meets the chief of police and clashes with his new country's bureaucratic culture.

Frank falls for his language teacher Sigrid and opens a nightclub that's a big hit, but he draws unwanted attention from the police and a biker gang.

Now a successful local businessman, Frank joins a lucrative real estate deal but his plans are thwarted by the police, who believe he is a terrorist.
