In a remote Swedish town, Sandra (Tuva Novotny), a troubled young woman, is given a rundown apartment in a house being renovated by Polish workers. Another tenant is elderly Lilly (Ghita Norby), who lives among a lot of old furniture. Lilly's daughter, Rebecka (Jessica Zanden), tries to persuade her to move to an old folks' home, but Lilly refuses. After the old woman falls down in her apartment and is helped by Sandra, a friendship starts to develop between the two women, complicated by the long-hidden secret of Lilly's past and Sandra's relationship with one of the Poles, Marek (Lukasz Garlicki). FOUR WEEKS features exquisitely observed, finely nuanced performances by Tuva Novotny and celebrated Danish actress Ghita Nørby.

Dans une lointaine ville de Suède, Sandra, une jeune femme troublée, noue une amitié inattendue avec Lilly, une survivante effacée de l'Holocauste. Bien que Lilly se souvienne d'amours interdites pendant la guerre, elle encourage Sandra à s'ouvrir aux attentions d'un beau travailleur polonais.
