Three very different elderly women escape from the deadly boredom of their rest home; they are inspired by Søren Kierkegaard's statement: "To dare means losing your footing for a while; not to dare means losing yourself forever". For two days and nights they experience the sensuality and beauty of life on a Greek holiday island but soon their bliss is interrupted.

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.
