Georg & Lydia

Lydia is a road movie. Lydia (30 years) and Georg (70 years) are in two completely different stages of their lives when their paths cross.

Lydia is a young and talented organist. She is preparing her debut concert, but suffering from blockage. Georg has a heart disease and is closing the account of his life. He is looking for a way to say goodbye. He is on his way from Stockholm to his son in Finland, to ask him to be with Georg at the heart operation that might cost him his life.

When Lydia meets Georg, he has just been pulled over by a cop. Georg doesn´t have a valid driver´s license and needs a driver. Lydia needs a lift, and offers to drive his car.

On the way both Lydia and Georg learn something big; You need courage to show your apt.
