The Swedish comedy-drama series "Folk med Ångest" is an adaptation of Fredrik Backman's novel of the same name. In a small town on the eve of the New Year holidays, a robber takes eight people hostage. Among the hostages are a sensitive real estate agent, two drug addicts, a pregnant woman, and a millionaire with suicidal tendencies. Soon, the criminal begins to consider surrendering to law enforcement rather than staying alone with these people.
