Eleven short films - by eleven different directors - edited together as a feature film.

The film begins New Year's Eve 1986 at a funeral. The same day the old folks sitting municipality's oldest inhabitants - 103-year-old Elise Olsson - not knowing what day it is. The other old people see the annual reportage from the royal family. At the local dance hall celebrated midnight with the national anthem, and the home of Baron Hans pair and Madeleine Ramels manor held traditional speech before the new year.

What remains of a person after his death? How long does the memory of her live on? This is a film that tries to make a portrait of the soldier and homesteader Olof Knutsson Ros, called Rosgubben, who lived in Äppelbo parish in Västerdalarna and died there in 1918 at the age of 89.

A gas station on the outermost windy cape in Skåne, becomes an allegory of Sweden in the 80s.

About the Scanian nature, about people's toil with the crops, and about those who were once landowners, manufacturers or paid. The agricultural landscapes are telling a story about human work. And about the power.
