Main character Sven is stuck in the RatRace. Living alone, working late with stupid people and no proper life. Childhood friend has written a book, lives the life of an adventurer and appears on a popular TV Show.
The friend dies in a silly way (remember, a comedy) and during the funeral Sven meets a Norwegian girl (Gitte) who works and lives in Thailand. All these experiences makes him jump off his boring live and jump on a flight to Phuket where he plans to write The Novel.
Anja (Oh ever so beautiful Susanne Thorson), whom Sven met at a Gym, is also traveling to Thailand with 2 friends. They are to be there for a week and then their partner are to come down. But Anja have just broke up with her boyfriend so she is rather hesitant to go.
Everything boils down to chance meets in Phuket, love and comedy. This is a warm, funny Swedish movie with lots of short gags. The main story isn't that interesting as it is about man, woman and love. Seen everywhere and in almost every film. What makes this film is all the small details around the characters with David Hellenius as Bar/Restaurant owner + adventure travel arranger George as the diamond.
It's a nice, friendly movie with lots of comedy and small things to laugh at. The cast stays in character and it is a nice warm feeling afterward. It's not a great movie but if you have a "nordic" attitude to life, it's a hit.
