In a working-class area of Sweden, sisters Laura, Mira, and Steffi, get by on their own, left to their own devices by an absent mother. With summer on the way and no parents around, life is carefree and anarchic. But when social services call a meeting, Laura has to find someone to impersonate their mom, or the girls will be taken into foster care and separated. Laura keeps the threat a secret, but as the moment of truth draws closer, the three sisters will need to negotiate the fine line between freedom and the harsh realities of growing up.
