A new Icelandic TV series directed by Benedikt Erlingsson. When Ditte Jensen retires with distinction from the Danish intelligence service she moves into an apartment building in Reykjavik. Her dream is to be able to tend to her garden and live her life in anonymity. But Ditte cannot stop being who she is – an elite soldier and a warrior. Soon the apartment building becomes a battlefield for a better world. She feels compelled to help her neighbours, who are struggling with a wide range of problems, and it makes no difference to her whether they want the help or not. In the mind of the Danish woman, the end justifies the means. Always.

Not suitable for children under 12 years of age.
Ditte’s dream of creating a passionate, family-like community - with herself at the centre as the building’s helper and saviour - seems to be coming true. She believes that the ends always justify the means, and so she takes on a public institution with a microbial assault, breaking the Fifth Commandment in the process. With that, she can cross two tasks off her “list.”
