Two young women are preparing for a party. All is set, and the only thing remaining is a choice of hairstyle. Faced with each other in the mirror, tension is running high and it only takes the smallest thing to re-ignite a deep and lasting conflict between these two friends.

In a small Faroese village, four men find a sealed liquor barrel washed ashore at low tide. They hustle the heavy barrel into a basement, away from the prying eyes. Soon, however, the sneaking suspicion arises that instead of liquor, the mysterious barrel might in fact contain something else. Tensions run high as the host, Símun, eventually has to handle both the negotiations down in the basement, as well as his distrustful wife upstairs.
