The love story between Sidsel and Christian, who both have Down's syndrome, is an extraordinary tale about a relationship full of respect and understanding. Sidsel is a romantic soul, a Cinderella who has found her prince. Christian is a farmer, a practical man who loves his wife. They have known each other for a long time and are devoted to one another. Their love is firm and sincere. Despite the mutual attention, the thousands of embraces, kisses and declarations of love, sometimes clouds appear, and their ideas and desires need to be clarified. Do we want a family? Do we like where we live? With admirable elegance, Sidsel and Christian tackle the questions that sooner or later every couple must face. At the same time, both of them know well what works on the other, when to use puppy eyes or a fairytale limousine ride. (One World)
