An adaptation of the Per Petterson novel of the same name, the film is set in November 1999, with Stellan Skårsgard playing the lead role as a lonely 67-year-old widower called Trond, who is looking forward to spending New Year’s Eve 2000 on his own. However, as winter arrives, Trond finds out that he now has a neighbour – a man he knew 50 years ago and who marked his life forever after a decision made by his father when he was a teenager.
