Four friends live a good city life, and despite food on the table, a warm bed and a condominium worth millions, their lives are characterized by postpartum depression, pleasure and emptiness. And a lot of loose talk. The feeling of being a worthless mother, even though you do everything right. Or maybe not all of them right.
Four women in horrible apartments in Stockholm's inner city. They are miserable and very emotional. They are extremely lazy and sad and that's why they're treating this night out as their last night alive. Darkness is mixed with humour, and to tell the darkest stories, contrast is used. It's a mixture of light and fun and panic attacks. The unusual thing about Post Partum Party is that nothing is censored, nothing is being glamourised in any way. These are not good girls. These are dieting, ungrateful hags who aren't trying to make the world a better place, women we love for their flaws, their kindness, beauty and living conditions, and their struggle to cope in this world.
Vera and her husband Simon live an inner city life in Stockholm with their five year old daughter Fredrika and their cute baby Marta. She loves her job as a tv producer, has wonderful friends, and a summer house in the archipelago. Her life ‘should be’ perfect.. but it isn’t. An emptiness has started to fester within her...
It’s Vera’s birthday and her schedule is packed, birthday celebrations with the family, happy hour with Jassi, but first she has to meet Carro at NK. And a secret she has never told anyone is revealed. Jassi and Victor are trying to find their way back to each other. And nothing goes as expected, for anyone.
