The paths of various lost souls cross in Reykjavík's district of Breiðholt. Clueless young romantic Daníel meets long lost childhood friend Aaron after breaking up with his girlfriend Sóley. After a quick catch-up they embark on a night neither will soon forget and Daníel is face to face with a turning point in his life.

Produced entirely independently by Gabríel Elí and me in the winter of 2021/22. Making this film was utter chaos, but much was learned (like stop making films outside in the winter) and it holds a sweet spot in my heart.
