In his new film, an intriguing and delicately crafted drama, Malmros portrays the poignant story of a man, who grew up in very modest circumstances in the early years of the 20th century, but whose diligence, intelligence and willingness to endure hardship helped him to become a leading brain surgeon. A success story on the face of it, but a story about a man - who is none other than the director's father - a man of powerful emotions. The film explores the nature and origin of the guilt that repeatedly deprived him of happiness.

The couple of Rikke and Bo feel very lucky when they offer them a huge but dilapidated luxury apartment in Copenhagen. To pay for the necessary renovations they look for other partners to join the project, and so five new apparently perfect residents begin their new lives. But soon will strange and inexplicable events begin to happen?
