Synopsis: Cecilie and Joachim are in love and engaged and planning a future together. Marie and Niels, who are about forty, have been happily married for several years now and they have three children. The oldest daughter, fourteen-year-old Stine, is coming of age and is always arguing with her mother. The lives of both couples get interconnected due to a car accident in which Marie, upset after another argument with her daughter, doesn't notice Joachim getting out of his car and runs over him. Joachim is transferred to hospital immediately. Niels is a doctor and works in the hospital where Joachim is treated. Feeling guilty, Marie asks her husband to take care of Cecilie.
