Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

Karen (Solbjoerg Hoejfeldt) has just come out of a divorce and although she is a worldly-wise woman who knows her own mind, like most people she has been hurt in the process of legally breaking off her marriage. She meets Jens (Kurt Dreyer) a quiet, somewhat introverted man whose own divorce left him less than enthusiastic about starting up a new relationship. In spite of their wounds and the warnings of divorced friends, both Karen and Jens cannot deny the attraction they begin to feel for each other, and each fall into a pattern of gradual and increasing commitment. Appropriately enough, the musical score of the Wobbly Waltz provides melodies that lighten the drama, and enhance the mood that the witticisms and drole situations bring to the story.
