Eva’s life is not great. Her husband has left her for their neighbour, her son is distant and she is on the brink of retirement. Just as she is despairing, one phone call changes everything. When established actor Harald Skoog has a stroke and needs help in his home Eva takes the job to escape from her loneliness. In the ensuing confrontation with the self-absorbed actor, her life turns around. This is a story about friendship, hope and a reminder that it is never too late to dream of and to live the life you want to live.

Presented by the Embassy of Sweden as part of the European Film Festival 2024.
