Overview

Clara leads a seemingly perfect life with a successful career and her charming boyfriend, Tobias. But when she runs into Katrine by chance, the facade begins to crumble. For despite their differences, the two women discover they have one thing in common: Tobias. For years, they’ve both been in a relationship with the same man. Clara’s world comes crashing down, and in her search for the truth, she becomes entangled in an inscrutable game where the lines between truth and lies, desire and deception blur—and where it becomes increasingly difficult to determine who is actually manipulating whom.
