The Man with all the Marbles
Two brothers. Håkan is the successful one. Martin is homeless. Now that their father is dead they both stand to inherit the family business.
Håkan has always won over Martin in everything, from the marbles they played as children to control of the business.
But now Martin is out for revenge. And if he can just beat his brother in a game of marbles, everything will turn around for him.
