    • Synopsis
    • Ever since Ben has been living apart from his ex-wife Mira and their children Oscar and Erna, his life has fallen apart. Alone in his semi-detached house, he drags himself through sleepless nights and starts the day with muesli and beer. But unexpectedly, Ben gets a second chance to prove that he can be a perfect father: when the heavily pregnant Mira has to go to the hospital prematurely, his children temporarily move in with him. However, things don’t go quite according to plan. Ben realizes this the moment he opens the suitcases. Because there it is: Oscar's dress. And with this innocent dress, Ben and his conventionally messed-up family embark on an adventure at the end of which everything is different – and no one is the same anymore.
