Philip, an Englishman living in Denmark, is a lonely, middleaged widower and estranged single father. Ida is a Danish hairdresser, recuperating from chemo therapy, who has just been left by her husband for a younger woman, Thilde. The fates of these two bruised souls are about to intertwine as they embark for Italy to attend the wedding of his son, Patrick, to her daughter, Astrid. A film about the simple yet profound pains and joys of moving on - and forward - with your life.
