Filmen 'Nitram' følger den unge mand Nitram, der - på trods af at være i slut-20'erne - stadig bor hjemme hos sin mor og far. Fortællingen om enspænderen udspiller sig i 1996 i dagene op til et grusomt masseskyderi på øen Tasmanien i Australien, som han endte med at stå bag. Nitram har det ikke nemt med hverken sig selv eller sine omgivelser. Han har ikke noget arbejde og ikke nogen venner, mens det ikke går meget bedre med det modsatte køn. Dagene går blot med at slentre rundt på må og få, fyre krudt af og skyde til måls, mens han også går fra hus til hus i forsøget på at sælge sig selv til at slå naboernes græsplæner. 'Nitram' er et råt portræt af manden, der stod bag det brutale masseskyderi og historien om, hvad der gik forud for tragedien.
