Over the course of a year, we follow the Raballder handball team, which plays in a regular series in Oslo. The goal is a promotion from the 4th to the 3rd division. Everyone on the team is gay. From curling princesses in the dressing room, they transform into testosterone monsters on the pitch. The players are also fighting a battle against homophobic attitudes on the sports field. With a lot of self-irony and humor, the players make this an entertaining documentary series. We follow the boys in matches against heterosexual teams, take part in doctor visits, gay tournaments, EuroPride in Oslo, football matches, ski races, and celebrations of Norway's National Day. The boys also travel to their home villages where they meet their parents and siblings. One of the players gets his shooting arm destroyed in a car accident.
