Synopsis
Daniel Jor has one hobby (metal detecting), one job (new), one mother (domineering), and no father (dead). His mother Camilla, is more of a problem. Daniel still lives at home, and his mother wants him to stay there forever. This is not exactly what Daniel (29) considers an attractive prospect. He is working as a psychologist, dealing with a strange mix of patients in varying degrees of confusion. One of them is Max, a Swedish man who has taken a shine to Daniel, but who is ill with cancer. But it is Daniel's hobby that finally makes him take charge of his life. Searching beneath the surface of things, the detector becomes a way of life just as much as a hobby. One day he and his friend Ronny find a necklace with the inscription "Janne", and after Ronny announces it on his radio show, a Janne appears. Daniel falls in love, buys a flat and leaves home. But then Janne disappears again, and suddenly Daniel is about to get under the surface of more layers of information than he ever bargained for.
