Synopsis:
It's a beautiful evening in the summer cottage. The grill is heating up when Björk introduces her new boyfriend to her older sister Ragnhildur and her husband. The sisters were raised in a broken home, but their lives have taken different paths. Ragnhildur has recently been voted into parliament and is married to the former soccer player Magnús, now a successful entrepreneur. Björk is on the cusp of making it as a star with her punk band and has recently met Óskar, who looks like a nice guy. Surely this must turn out to be a fantastic evening...

A young Icelandic playwright steps forth with a ruthless reflection on current affairs, a riveting piece straight from Scandinavian reality. A tragicomic play about investors, footballers, politicians, artists and social workers: on the surface, the different generations argue about the meaning of life and what it is to be successful, happy or a valued member of society – but underneath, secrets are uncovered, lives splintered, and beliefs shattered.
