A touching and entertaining romantic drama comedy about the longing for love.
Synopsis
Óskar (39) and Maggi (37) are brothers, easy going and seemingly well-adjusted in society. But both have a hard time nurturing close relationships, a problem they deal with in different ways. Óskar stays away from romantic ties while Maggi goes through a non-discriminative stream of short lived relationships. The veterinary Anna 36 is facing a life changing decision that Óskar unwittingly influences. The young wanna-be artist Ingibjörg tries to become a grown-up as fast as she can and the 13-year-old friends Danni T and Danni M plod on with their daily life, which increasingly takes place in Óskar’s house.

My previous film, HEMMA (Home) dealt with the relationship between a young woman and her grandmother. This time around I want to dive into the relationship between two brothers, something that relates more closely to me personally. The brothers are just two ordinary guys with various, sometimes conflicting, traits and one big problem in common; longing for love, but unable to sustain a lasting relationship; a problem manifested in different ways.
