Premise

When their son Esben moves away from home, Kjeld and Vibeke decide to move to something smaller. They discover that their old apartment is for sale and move back to start fresh. Kjeld decorates the apartment as it once looked, and together they relive their youthful days in love. But what once defined them may no longer exist, and one morning events take a turn neither of them could have predicted as they wake up thirty years younger.[3]
