When Mattias lises both his job and girlfriend, he agrees to come along as sound technician for a concert in Torshavn on the Faroe Islands. Hovever, he gets drunk on the ferry, is coaxed into revealing his singing voice, whereupon he loses it completely. He wakes up in a remote landscape on the Faroe Islands. Here he is picked up by Havstein, who runs a rehabilitation centre for the mentally ill in the small town of Gjogv. Here Mattias meets people who accept him as he is, and slowly he develops a new approach to the world - leading to love, a heroic recue and a fantastic boat-building project.
