Once a great curling-star, Truls Paulsen is diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder and banned from competing. Ten years later, after having been released from psychiatry, he learns that his former coach Gordon is on his deathbed. Under these circumstances, Truls decides to compete again. His goal is to win the championship cash prize to pay for Gordon’s urgently needed and very expensive operation. He leaves his wife, starts gathering his old team mates and stops taking his medications. Now, only one question has to be answered: Will Truls succeed in leading his curling team to victory and in saving his old friend’s life?

Whimsical debut feature film with fantastic timing – from Norway!
