For forty years, married couple Margot and Per Bjørvik have lived on the roadless farm Aldal in the mountains north of Bolstadøyri in Hordaland. The basis of life has been a flock of sheep and a souvenir factory that Per has started. The goods are transported by cable car, while they themselves make their way on a four-wheeler along a bumpy path. Margot is now in need of care, but Per stands by and takes care of her, because they intend to stay in Aldal.

Else Juliussen from the most deserted seaside hamlet of Hasfjord in Finnmark is a colorful woman and a Good Samaritan.
