Pia is coming home for Christmas after traveling in England for about 6 months. She wants to catch up with her boyfriend Kristoffer, who was supposed to join her on the trip, but backed out at the last minute. Finding him turns out to be quite a task. While searching, she meets several more or less disgruntled and dissatisfied people. And when Santa turns up, things start happening.
Reidar is a resident at Solihøgda psychiatric institution. He is expecting the Earth to be hit by a huge meteor any time now, but until then he is busy trying to keep his fellow patient, Juni, from killing herself. And it doesn't happen often. But maybe one is allowed to hope. That when the quarks in the ball are correctly aligned with the quarks in the wall that you throw it at, there won't be a collision. But a moment of harmony when everything is balanced. And that moment could be now.
