Art and business clash as the budget runs out-of-control and tempers flare in this behind-the-scenes look at the building of Turning Torso, a 190-meter residential building, designed by world famous architect Santiago Calatrava.

Johnny Örbäck, MD of the HSB in Malmö, finds his reputation at stake as he fights delayed building schedules, astronomical over-budget expenses and a brilliant yet temperamental artist (Calatrava) who tests the patience of the investors and construction crew. From the first earthturning to the extraordinary final product, this film follows the journey of the Turning Torso, and the two men who so passionately believed in it.
