ALENE HJEMME – HOME ALONE
by Kirsten Hammann
SARA IS IN her late thirties, a freelance journalist, and lives with Philip, a divorced businessman, in his large luxury apartment in central Copenhagen. The beautiful and slightly eccentric Frederikke lives upstairs. Every other week, Philip’s young daughters come to visit.
SARA LOVES PHILIP. The only thing missing is a child of their own. And for him to be home a little more. One day, the food starts tasting strange, and she keeps falling asleep. Then she begins to see visions. Or does she? Is someone trying to steal her happiness?
