Last Christmas the future looked bright for Lisbeth Cederström in Frillesås, a small village on the Swedish west coast. She was happy as a teacher and in her little house by the sea and enjoyed a new love in her life. And she had kept her promise never to allow herself to be controlled by others.
But when Easter approaches, a new couple moves into the house next door and soon the quarrels begin regarding plot boundaries, visits and a rooster cuckooing at night. At school, malicious rumors begin to circulate about Lisbeth having received money she had no right to from a former partner’s company and that she is unsuited as a substitute headmaster.On top of that her boyfriend’s loyalty fails, due to a demanding exwife, which makes the crisis complete.
What happens then, when an old unrequited love is suddenly there with good advice, support and possibly a desire for more?
