The musical tells the story of the successful conductor Daniel Daréus’ return to his childhood homeland in a small village in northern Sweden. The top musician, who has suffered from health problems, would like to live a quiet life, but soon finds himself conducting the villagers’ church choir, and in the middle of a colorful and vibrant community. Among the diverse country choir, there are not only friends, but also old wounds and, finally, true love.

The music of the musical, which emphasizes the power of music, community, hope and joy of life, is provided by Sweden’s best-known Eurovision composer Fredrik Kempe.

This vigorous story, also known as a film, contains touching destinies and liberating joy, offers the viewer warmth and balm for the soul.
