As Michael unannounced travel to his childhood home, he is met by a new version of his father. Free from years of substance abuse, Svend-Aage is suddenly full of energy. He’s eager to talk about his glorious days as a clothing salesman, and he is determined to win back the love of his wife, Astrid. But throughout the years, she has found comfort in her dog Lexus, and finds it hard to let her husband back into her life. As the family home is put up for sale, years of memories are packed into boxes, and a dark chapter reemerge. While the contours of a family trauma scratch the surface, Svend-Aage seizes the chance to deal with his breach of trust and a new chance in life.
