Ambros Fornes (Nilsen) owns two large farms and runs a coaching house. On his farm he has four fit and shiny black horses. These horses eventually become the centre of his life, because his young and beautiful wife, Lisle (Sletto), is unable to love him like he loves her. She can not forget Bjørneskinn (Vicklund), the blonde boy she was once in love with. He wanted to be a poet, but decided on a life on the road when he could not have her.

When the old boyfriend one day returns, it leads to a dramatic showdown. The family is about to fall apart, which will be particularly hard for Kjell, Ambros and Lisle's young son. He end up in a conflict of loyalty between his parents, and has great difficulties dealing with the situation.
