At age 14, Sven is a shortwave radio ham who, without knowing exactly how, hits a time warp and finds himself along with his friends Bo and Petra back in the Middle Ages. An evil knight abducts Petra just as Sven and Bo are returning to the present. The tricky question now is how they can once more return to the past in order to save Petra. Swedish director Åke Sandgren's second Danish youth fiction film.
