During Unn Tove's wedding reception, a baby is born in the restaurant's bathroom. The bride finds the newborn girl and turns her over to the authorities. The two meet again 16 years later. By that time, Unn Tove is a divorced mother of two daughters, working as a journalist for a local broadcaster. The almost grown-up Rosemari is trying to track down her birth mother. Unn Tove decides to help the young woman with her search and to shoot a report about it for her TV station. On their journey through Norway, all the way to Denmark, the two women deal with questions about motherhood, love and lies. As they get closer to finding Rosemari's mother, Unn Tove must decide whether or not to tell the younger woman the truth. (Cinemax)

A completely different type of drama (not really a comedy, as this website states) from what the Scandinavians usually film. First, I was pleased by Tuva Novotny who brightens almost every Scandinavian movie with her beauty. I still see her as the most beautiful Scandinavian actress and based on her surname I know why that is (it seems like she’s of Czech origin). However, the story has a slightly lighter spirit which is reinforced by the, for a drama of this sort, strangely conceived music which isn’t really milking your emotions but rather plays the tones of a Spanish guitar that I could imagine in a Spanish comedy rather than in a drama. But eventually, I had to admit that this pleasant change wasn’t completely out of place and in the end, the story caught my attention.
