The soldier Thomas (Mikkel Boe Følsgaard) is badly injured in Afghanistan and sent home. Bitter, but determined to return to service, he struggles with rehabilitation while his girlfriend Nina (Silja Eriksen Jensen) tries to support him as best she can.

One day, Thomas meets the ballet dancer Sofie (Cecilie Lassen), who quickly sees that Thomas needs help if he is to reach his goal. Thomas is not immediately enthusiastic about Sofie's offer, but he realizes that it is necessary and says yes. The training works, and Thomas experiences progress. And with each passing day, the feeling of success grows stronger - and so do the feelings for Sofie.
