Plot summary

Magnus Ejnar Hinder is a 40-ish teacher, amateur musician and composer. He plays the flute and is working on his life’s work on his spare time: A symphony. He is divorced but his wife Lena has not entirely let him go, and he has a relationship with Rosita who is an art teacher at the school where he works. After a school dance he worries that Rosita is pregnant. He has at the same time, from a distance, fallen in love with and dreams about Cilla, a visiting British cello-player who sat in with the local orchestra only once. Then he surprisingly wins a contest with his symphony and gets to travel to Stockholm, where he meets and get to know Cilla for real. She reciprocates his feelings but has commitments at home and returns to Britain.
