Plot summary
My family is into plastic surgery and their surgeon is my brother. He has operated 24 family members. The film is about the relations within my family and their relation to their own bodies, to the pain, physical, psychological and metaphysical, due to the serial operations. A black-humorous portrait of a family in its quest for happiness that is never achieved, where values such as hard work and love stand in contrast to appearance fixation.
