Regissören rör sig hemtamt i ett rätt ogästvänligt Reykjavik, men också i en isländsk filmtradition, så stark och rik på så otroligt många talangfulla filmare – och skådespelare.

Tre vidt forskellige liv udspiller sig hver for sig og krydses i Reykjavik. Eik er alenemor, børnehavepædagog og luksusluder, Móri er en detroniseret, alkoholiseret forfatter, og Sölvi er en bankmand med moralske kvaler.

...en gripande film. Framför allt Hilmar och Bachmann gör fina insatser med otrolig närvaro.
