Marianne is going on 17, she feels too fat, and struggles with the ideals girls have to live up to to get accepted. When she meets her penpal Svein for the first time things look up, but she soon has to face new and unexpected problems when she discovers she is pregnant. Not being able to get support even from her own family, she has to make her life's most difficult decision on her own.

Dimwitted, somewhat misanthropic Oslo mail carrier Roy's quiet life changes dramatically on the day he steals a set of keys and lets himself into the apartment of a deaf woman who seems to be in trouble with a psychotic criminal. Though he doesn't know it at the time, his and her fate are about to intertwine and this is not going to be to his benefit.

Once upon a time a little girl went out to find the Christmas Star.
