Translated from Swedish, this unusual story is about Desiree, a totally disabled woman given up at birth by a mother who goes on to raise 3 foster daughters. A witch with paranormal powers, Desiree sets out to find out which one of her sisters is living the life which should have been hers. Unaware of her existence, her sisters' lives change when Desiree sets in motion events and confrontatins between her sisters as they are beset by memories and regrets. Sad, poignant and sometimes a little bleak, but rich characters and a hopeful end.
