Kresten, newly wed, is on the threshold of a great career success in his father-in-law´s company. But when the death of his own father takes him back to his poverty-stricken childhood home, far out in the country, his career plans fall apart. For one thing he has to deal with his loveable, backward brother, who is now all alone; for another, he meets a stunning woman who comes to the farm as a housekeeper, in disguise of her real profession as a call-girl.

A stark, intimate look at buried desires and the suffocating weight of duty. It feels like a confession whispered in a quiet, rural landscape, where harsh realities meet fleeting moments of connection.
