The Wild Duck

Storyline

Since both parents have passed on, only Hedvig and her older siblings live in the once-splendid, now-derelict family mansion. Hedvig, at 17 the family’s youngest member, spends her days mainly taking care of a wild duck injured by a neighbour. The other two run a photographic studio in a nearby town that doesn’t seem to feel any need for a business like this. Enter the oldest of the siblings, Karin, who left the house years ago and returns solely to sell the estate. Whatever thinnest of threads held the four children together now snaps.
