A GOOD MOTHER
Mona Doermer takes her two kids Danny and Malén to the sea. The emotionally unstable single mother and her two disconcertingly mature kids form an odd team, raising eyebrows at the seaside resort. So everyone is worried when little Marie disappears. Young police detective Greta, who feels strangely attached to Mona, does everything she can to find the missing girl and figure out the family's dark secret.
