Mother, father and three children live in a picture-postcard idyll in the Norwegian countryside. But the parents are seriously concerned about the state the current generation will leave the world in for their children. Together as a family, they make the decision to throw their previous life overboard and make a new start in an eco-village that is just being built in Denmark. The documentary filmmaker Erlend E. Mo has succeeded in making a refreshing, thoughtful and at the same time cheerful documentary in which he follows his own family up close with all the ups and downs in the major project of their lives.
