Werner Nielsen, a man in his 30s, saves his life by subjecting himself to a heart transplant. He finds his personality curiously changed. It becomes his obsession to learn all about the donor of his heart, a man who died in a car accident. He seeks out the man's widow disclosing why he came. They fall in love and move in together, and that's when his new heart starts failing him, too.

Det Danske Filminstitut registrerer international festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film,
dog primært de titler, som Filminstituttet varetager i sin festivaldistribution,
og primært i forbindelse med de festivaler, som Filminstituttet har prioriteret at samarbejde med.
Registreringen af festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film, der ikke er i festivaldistribution,
foretages kun for "launch"-festivaler ifølge Filminstituttets prioriterede festivalliste. Se listen over prioriterede festivaler.
