In presence of Henriette Steenstrup and Ida Håndlykken Kvernstrøm (producer).
Pørni struggles to live up to her role as a mother, daughter and social worker. After a divorce and the death of her sister, this forty-something woman faces everyday life as a joyful battlefield. A series that makes imperfection a cardinal virtue.
Pørni, a buxom forty-something, fights for those she loves. But between her father's coming out, her teenagers' crises, her divorce and her job as a social worker, she forgets herself... With a formidable sense of situation, Henriette Steenstrup, creator and lead actress, portrays an authentic woman, as sparkling as a champagne flute, who hides a flaw. And holds up a mirror to a resolutely contemporary femininity.
