Call Me Dad
Non-confrontational Emil and self-assured Viktor are life-long friends. Having always done everything together, they become business partners when launching a sustainable catering company.
Everything changes when Emil discovers that Viktor is in a relationship with his mother, Helle. Emil has difficulty accepting the situation, but to avoid conflict, he buries his feelings and accepts the incredibly awkward situation.
When Viktor and Emil’s mum decide to move in together and casually start mentioning starting a new family, Emil feels increasingly uncomfortable, and his acceptance of the new couple is stretched to its limit.
