A film by Ole Christian Madsen
Enjoying life in their mid-thirties, Kira and her husband Mads have a large
house and two wonderful children. Their world is perfectly secure and comfortable
until Kira develops a psychiatric disorder, which eventually commits her to
a hospital. On being discharged, Kira's sole desire is to return to the normality
of her previous life and fulfil her role as a good wife and mother. But, as
she struggles to maintain equilibrium, she discovers Mads has had an affair
during her hospitalization.
