Plot
After an inexplicable event causes the dead to return, three grieving families are confronted with the resurrection of their loved ones: Mahler, who lost his young grandson Elias, the son of his daughter Anna; David, who mourns his wife Eva; and Tora, who is devastated by the death of her partner Elisabet. Mahler is visiting Elias’s grave when the event occurs. He collapses, only to awaken lying across the grave. Digging up the coffin, he finds Elias alive but in an advanced state of decay. He brings the child home, and when Anna returns from her night shift, she finds Elias in bed. Confused and overwhelmed, she spirals into despair, attempting to end her life. Mahler intervenes, saving her. Meanwhile, David, at work when the event strikes, receives a call about Eva’s accident. He rushes to the hospital, but she dies before he arrives. While sitting by her body, she unexpectedly starts breathing again, leaving the hospital staff baffled. Oslo becomes a city where the dead walk among the living, lost in a trance, unable to communicate. Residents wake to find the streets filled with the newly resurrected, many desperately trying to escape their graves. Tora, unable to accept Elisabet’s death, bathes and dresses her in an attempt to restore some sense of normalcy. Tora attempts to feed her some toast, but Elisabet attempts to bite Tora's hand. Tora shares one last dance with Elisabet, then overdoses to join her in death. Mahler and Anna retreat to a remote cottage with Elias, hoping to find peace, but Elias’s strange behavior and the smell of decay intensify Anna’s growing dread. As tensions mount, Anna finds herself alone at the cottage with Elias. She takes a swim, but upon returning, she encounters a decomposing man near the cottage. Mahler arrives just in time to fight the man off, but he is killed when the man bites his throat. Anna flees the cottage with Elias in a rowboat. David, seeking answers, contacts the hospital, only to be told there are no updates on Eva. He tries to continue life with his children Flora and Kian, including celebrating Kian’s birthday. When they visit Eva at the hospital, she holds Kian’s pet bunny but crushes it in a trance. Flora quietly declares, “Mom is dead,” and David is forced to face the truth. Kian, overwhelmed by the loss of his mother, buries his bunny in a private ceremony in the woods. The story concludes with Anna and Elias on the rowboat. She tells him she loves him and gently places him in the water, watching him sink. ==Cast==
