(Tyven, tyven)
What would you do if someone stole your daughter?
In a moment of anger and despair Harald does something he had dreamed about for a long time, but never dared: He kidnaps Lisa, his daughter that he is never allowed to see. Suddenly he has his hands full. Not only does he have the police and a terrified ex-wife on his tail - 7-year-old Lisa turns out to be the toughest opponent of all. She does not share her father's dream about a new life abroad. But Lisa does have a dream of her own that she would like to realize ...

This is a touching and thoughtful story about how far a normal man is willing to go when someone takes away his most prized possession. It is a warm story about how a father and daughter fumble their way to a relationship they thought was lost.
