Three beautiful young women from an upper class family – Zon, Malene and Gritte – are living happily in North Africa, oblivious to the Algerian war. They seem unaffected by most things until, suddenly, their existence is disrupted by love, desperation and the end of an epoch. The sisters are three very different personalities, and the film, like a triptych, follows each of their several destinies. –Stockholm International Film Festival
