In this documentary, as remarkable as it is surprising, everything revolves around the questions whether (apparent) coincidence can be the starting point of a mystery, whether that mystery can be solved by those involved, and whether there might be comfort in that? Swedish director Maria Frederiksson shows it all in her first feature-length film, a humorously told story full of eccentric people and bizarre plot twists. It could be a feature film, were it not for the fact that everything really happened.
Norwegian sisters Kari and May, one living in Norway, the other in Sweden, decide to live together again and buy an apartment in the small Swedish village of Gullspång. To their amazement, the woman they buy it from, Olaug, looks remarkably like their older sister, who committed suicide in 1988. Even stranger: Olaug has the same nickname as their late sister: Lita. The believing sisters consider it a miracle of God. As they delve deeper into the family history, the story gets stranger and stranger.
