Different generations in a dysfunctional extended family are searching for the same near impossible thing: the perfect fulfilment of life. We have Victor, who is finally coming out of the closet only to realize that he is too old for the gay dating market, his sister, opera diva Annika, who reimagines her life after receiving a terminal diagnosis, grandmother Joke who is tired of life and just wants to die, as well as 10-year-old Timo who is checking off his bucket list believing he only has one week left to live.
