Favourite
A Love Story Told in Passing Moments

Lovis and Kian have recently separated. Each time they exchange custody of their children, they meet at a roadside restaurant near the bridge connecting Sweden and Denmark. Kian, still holding on to hope, asks Lovis to wait until Christmas - three months away - before signing the divorce papers. As the series unfolds through these brief encounters, both begin to reevaluate their choices, dreams, and feelings for each other. Is it too late for a second chance?


This series strips relationships down to their core, creating an intimate and emotionally charged chamber play. With just one location, two deeply complex characters, and dialogue that oscillates between sharp humor and raw emotion, it captures the universal struggles of love, loss, and the uncertainty of divorce. The story unfolds in fleeting moments, each encounter revealing the push and pull of a couple caught between moving on and holding on. With masterful writing, world-class performances, and a strikingly simple yet powerful premise, it invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships, making it both deeply personal and universally relatable.
