Atli is kicked out of the house and forced to move in with his parents. While he fights for custody of his four-year-old daughter, he is sucked into a conflict between his parents and their neighbors over an old and beautiful tree. What starts as a typical spat between suburban neighbors unexpectedly and violently reaches a boiling point. As trees are a common dispute reason between neighbours in Iceland, the film’s director Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurðsson was inspired by real-life incidents. He states: “What excited me originally about the idea is that such conflicts can be absurdly funny since they very often revolve around minor issues, but then very often get blown out of all proportion.”
