An American gangster of Swedish descent returns to Sweden to pose as a moral crusader, echoing later televangelist figures. Behind the scenes he commits rape and murder, yet he preaches to packed crowds, employing mass hypnotism and flashy show‑biz spectacle. The film also includes a brief cameo by Per Oscarsson after his much‑publicized retirement from screen acting.
