Lykke lives on a picturesque farm with her loving family and is expecting her second child. Nothing seems to suggest that her happiness is about to unravel. Yet something is wrong.
After the traumatic birth of her second child, Lykke’s seemingly idyllic life begins to fall apart. She develops postpartum depression, and the everyday routines of farm work and family care turn into an exhausting struggle. Instead of the closeness and joy she longed for with her newborn, she is overwhelmed by distance, doubt, and a growing sense of failure as both a mother and a partner. This delicate film by a Swedish directing duo offers a tender look at the often unseen dimensions of motherhood. Set against the quiet Swedish landscape, it follows Lykke’s difficult journey toward healing and the gradual return of hope.
