Overview

Marie's life gets turned upside down when the love of her life, Rasmus, takes on a teaching job at a local school in West Jutland, Denmark. Rather unwillingly, Marie joins Rasmus in moving their roots from Copenhagen to the windy town, Velling. While Rasmus is an immediate match to the local ways, it becomes a culture chock for Marie, who time and time again proves herself a misfit to the locals. However, as she gradually learns to listen more and talk less, she realizes that she might need Velling as much as Velling needs her – and her advice column for the local newspaper.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A charming fish-out-of-water comedy about a restless city woman learning humility and connection in a small Danish town. It's a gentle exploration of how listening can be more valuable than talking, wrapped in warmth and humor.
