The brothers Markus and Lukas live in an old townhouse in Oslo and spend their vacations in Smøla, where their mother grew up. Markus loves soccer, and wants to be a professional. Lukas is more of a philosopher asking questions about the world, about himself, and what it’s all is about. Sometimes, what they want and need is the direct opposite of being a loving son or brother. The documentary is filmed by director Aslaug Holm, the boys’ mother, over an eight year period. This is her attempt to capture their child-hood and brotherhood, and their discovery of life, whilst looking back at her own family history.
