Her husband Niklas' loan fraud plunges housewife Laura Vandenberg into disaster. While Niklas is behind bars and the company is being wound up, Laura has to give up her house and move to a dreary high-rise estate with her two children. But with the support of her neighbor Ziggy, Laura soon finds a job in an Italian dive bar. Thanks to her sophisticated cooking skills, which she acquired as a perfectly organized housewife, Laura gets the shop going. Finally, Niklas is released on probation - but then Laura finds out that her husband has not only cheated on the bank.
