An ethnographic comedy showing people at leisure in the setting of the ‘sommerhus’, a sort of summer residence popular in Denmark. Among the cast: a teenage girl who treads water in an indoor swimming pool, two old sisters bemused by a TV system, some drunken friends indulging in a risky game of darts, a man in underpants hooked on virtual reality and a woman with a nervy Shih Tzu who narrates how they spend their day.
Unfolding within a summer day, the debut of Danish anthropologist Adam Paanske sheds a loving, critical and humouristic light on the mundaness of every-day life and simultaniously raises an existential question: How do we spend the time we are given?
