synopsis

Albert buys his daughter Jeanne an initiatory journey to a European country every year. For her 17th birthday he chooses a trip to Sweden to look for the lost treasure of the famous Viking Johannes Öberg. When they arrive in the rented house, it is occupied by Anika and Christine.

The improbable quartet decides to share the place which makes Albert
upset and Jeanne quite happy. The forced cohabitation will shatter everyone’s beliefs and delusions, and will push all of them into rethinking their lives and starting anew. Leaving behind ancient demons for some, and discovering unexpected feelings for others, they will all come back deeply changed.
