Synopsis

While Kristín’s soon to be ex, Helgi, tries
to win her back, she needs to resolve the
complicated past with Ragnar, her old
flame and the local policeman, however
uncomfortable it may be.
Becoming the first doctor in the village
in a long time, she quickly finds herself
far out of her comfort zone as her
pragmatic ideals are in sharp contrast
with the village’s use of herbal medicine,
spiritualism and psychic powers. The
clinic has been run by a nurse and
receptionist who fight to keep things as
they were – and in their opinion, should
be. Kristin’s strict scientific worldview
doesn’t go down too well with the psychic
experience of her mother and daughter,
causing both tension and friction in
their relationships. Lilja finds comfort
in her grandmother‘s company but also
experiences love for the first time further
complicating things. Kristin’s move to her
childhood village was meant to be only
temporary, but perhaps she needs the
village just as much as it needs her.
