Something must break
A love story between two young men where one is the androgynous Sebastian and one is Andreas who is not gay. They form a unity. It’s them against the polished Swedish Ikea-society. They dream about escaping boredom and the risk of becoming what everyone else it.
And then there is Ellie – the superwoman growing inside of Sebastian who Andreas loves and fears.
