    • Synopsis
    • In MAYA NILO (LAURA) we follow the humorous and dramatic journey of two sisters and a teenage daughter from cold and grey Stockholm to their mother's house in Portugal. From family arguments in Sweden to teenage heartbreak in Germany, through an unrequited fling in a French karaoke pub, we reach the culmination of a conflict- and laughter filled journey at the cliffs of Portugal. The reunion there turns out to be a tragicomic chaos that noone had expected.
