The siblings Linus, 19-years-old, who are taking driving license and Vanja, 17-years-old, who's still in school. Their mom Eva works night shift at a hotel. We get to follow them during one month. Linus and Vanja begin to realize that they are living in a universe of their own. And there is neither room for the mom or boy- and girlfriends. At first it is only the longing love in unspoken thoughts. But when thought gets into words they realize that they are each others perfect half. They are drawn closer to each other and finally can't resist the taboo temptation in each others bodies. At first they deny, lie and try to resist. It's about shame and guilt and forbidden feelings which leads to a point where everything is at stake.

Five minutes. A girl's doll carriage rolls toward a busy street while her father ignores her to talk to a friend; an impatient husband waits for his wife to cook his egg; lovers enjoy a last embrace as a man – her husband? – climbs the stairs. The friends part and the father looks for his daughter; the egg timer rings; the husband returns. Five minutes are almost up, but little is as we expect it.
