Underdog

Синопсис

Dino is dreaming of another life. Just like 80,000 other young Swedes she has fled the mass unemployment of Sweden to find a new life in Oslo. But pretty soon she is caught up in a destructive spiral surviving on little cash, irregular work and hard partying. After breaking her arm she gets fired from another job and unexpectedly lands work as a housekeeper. All three occupants of the house fall under her reckless charm. The young unsuspecting daughter, the teenage girl desperate for attention, and the father, alone and lonely due to his wife’s working abroad. What Dino doesn't count on, is falling in love. In fact, none of them count on it.
23-year-old "Dino" (Bianca Kronlöf) dreams of a different life. Like an abundance of Swedes her age, she has fled the mass unemployment of her home country in search of a more worthwhile existence in a nouveau-riche Oslo. But her new life is caught in deadlock - Dino finds herself stuck in a destructive loop of temporary jobs, financial trouble and hard partying. A broken arm incidentally leads to a position as a housekeeper in a Norwegian middle-class home. Dino is thrown into a reality very far from her own. During a few sultry summer weeks she ends up the centre of an odd love triangle, an unpredictable struggle for affection as well as dominance. "Underdog" is a tender and raw story of privilege and longing, yet at the same time a humorous and unmerciful observation of the shifted power balance between Sweden and Norway - an actuality where Swedes have become the Norwegians' servants.
