A tragic car accident upends the life of workaholic, self-absorbed businessman Åke Jönsson (Mikael Persbrandt), who loses everything -- including his pretty wife (Lena Olin) and two young children -- in this insightful Swedish import. When his entire family renounces him and he's fired at work, the desperate Åke becomes a cab driver and struggles to start over. But more anguish awaits after he takes up with an alluring 22-year-old (Tuva Novotny).
