In a mixture of documentary and multicultural talkshow, presenter Prem Radhakishun acts as an ombudsman for quarrelling parties. In the first case shown, he investigates the tense relations between radical right-wing teenagers and Moroccans. Following an arson attack on the local mosque, the Moroccans feel threatened in a provincial town. Prem brings both sides together in a youth club and discusses the controversial issue. In the end the rivals, although not everyone, reach an agreement to visit the mosque together. Further cases follow.
