A jaded mother makes a last-ditch effort to keep her family together by taking them on a trip to their teenage daughter’s pole dancing competition.

Friendship, grief and romance intersect with love in the lives of three generations of people living in Stockholm.

Bruce, a successful money manager to the stars, and his beautiful Swedish girlfriend Emma seem to be the perfect couple, so it only seems natural that when Emma decides to leave New York to accept a prestigious banking job in Sockholm a year into their relationship, Bruce decides to join her. When they get there, Bruce not only has to deal with the lack of a job and friends, and the culture shock of moving halfway across the world, but also with learning to get along with Emma's strange and very Swedish family, including her parents Viveka and Birger, and her slacker brother, Gustav.
