- A beautiful waterfront house, a Swedish flag fluttering in the wind. A sailboat tied to the wooden deck below. This is the setting of the friends' annual Midsummer celebrations. The friends are gathered at Emil's family house and the herring lunch, sauna, games and compulsory skinny dipping are as always prepared. Expectations are set - Micke worries about his highly pregnant wife and the fastest way to the nearest hospital. Eva is looking for some distraction from her recent split with Patrick and Sam. Emil's college buddy from the States arrives with his own expectations of Swedish sin. Wannabe singer-songwriter Anders hasn't told his wannabe pregnant girlfriend Maria about his low sperm count and hopes to solve the problem over the weekend. To top it off Emil's surprise seems to lift the party to unprecedented heights. If everything had gone according to plan that is.—Casa Nova Film Company AB
- Sumptuous food, steaming saunas, and midnight skinny dipping are the tradition on Swedish Midsummer, a day when the sun never sets. This year, friends have gathered at the country house of Emil (Daniel Gustavsson) and Susanne (Lisa Werlinder), the perfect Swedish couple. In attendance are Eva (Anna Littorin), who is looking for something (someone) to take her mind off of her recent split with Patrick (Per Wernolf). Anders (Olle Sarri) and Maria (Annica Bejhed), the nude hipsters who are trying for their first kid, Micke (Alexander Karim) and Katarina (Kari Hamfors Wernolf) who are about to have their first any day, and finally Sam (Luke Perry), the American friend who engages the proceedings with a twinkle and a smile. Who knew Swedish women don't wear panties on Midsummers Eve? Expectations are exceeded when Emil's big planned surprise goes awry leaving them all turned around for good!
