It's Christmas Eve, and Synnøve is searching for her drug-addicted daughter Michelle in an almost desolated city. During the course of the evening, she'll find herself in an impossible situation where she's forced to choose. (Synnøve and Michelle are mother and daughter in real life, and play versions of themselves in a story that’s very close to their own lives).
