Eva wants a child, but she does not want a partner. Men have always benefited from patriarchy and the traditional monogamous union, and Eva says: no, thank you. So she opts for the easy option of an anonymous donor insemination. And a Danish one on the top of that. This way the museum curator living in Stockholm is less likely to ever meet him in her life. Bust she is just too curious not to meet him. What if the father of her child is a psychopath? The romantic comedy in the old style, but with new themes and more sensitivity, follows the lives of forty-something Eva and her friends who still do not quite know how best to approach romantic relationships. But it is never too late. This funny ride between Copenhagen and Stockholm is given charm by the well-known Swedish actress with Czech roots, Tuva Novotny, and a perfect script full of characters who are all the more authentic in their contemplation of whether love really exists.
