Plot
For an elderly man, Trond Sander, it becomes increasingly unbearable to live alone in big and noisy Oslo. The main character is going through the death of his wife hard and can not come to terms with the fact that his beloved is no longer around. In a common house every little thing reminds of a spouse. Therefore, Trond decides to move to the village in order to live out his life so calmly for pleasant memories.
Instead, the man begins to worry about the vivid ghosts of the past. Sander meets an old acquaintance who immerses him in memories. Unfortunately, not all of them are pleasant. It turned out that in his youth, Trond experienced several tragedies at once. Among them is the loss of his own father, his first love. While still very young, the protagonist became a member of the triangle, which confirmed that it is impossible to completely trust even the closest and dearest people.
It is interesting that the plot of the picture is not only fictional fiction, but also part of the director's frank personal experiences. When writing the script, Moland repeatedly recalled his childhood and relied on his own emotions and experiences.
