Britt-Marie is not the easiest person to communicate with. It's not that she was somehow particularly stubborn, capricious or picky - she was just piously sure that there should always be absolute order everywhere and in everything.But the whole order collapses in an instant when Britt-Marie finds out that Kent, with whom they have lived in an exemplary marriage for forty years, has cheated on her. She makes a surprising decision for herself — to pack a suitcase and leave wherever she looks. In a remote provincial town with a not very friendly population, Britt-Marie will have to establish a new life. Which will be completely different from the previous one.
