This slowly moving Danish film is about a very boring people who don't talk. The viewer is expected to understand the emotional essence of the people by inference. This is a good movie to miss even though Rotten Tomatoes gave it a good rating.
From the promotional material:
In this poignant Danish tale, hapless plumber Keld (Bjarne Henriksen) finds his world crumbling when his wife of 25 years (Charlotte Fich) walks out on him. The dejected Keld soon falls into a routine of eating at the neighborhood Chinese grill, where he befriends the owner -- who offers Keld a sizable sum to wed the restaurateur's sister (Vivian Wu) in a marriage of convenience. Will love bloom despite the language barrier and clash of cultures?
