Grump groans his way through life and when his wife dies he sees no reason to go on living. At his wife’s funeral he says that he has decided to die. Grump stands in stark contrast to his one son, who lives in Belgium and is obsessed with luxury and his own and the daughter Sofia’s success. She has been accepted into Princeton and is her father’s feather in his cap. Now he wants her to study and network, but Sofia has completely different plans. (Göteborg Film Festival)
