Heartbound

25 years ago, Sommai, a former Thai sex-worker from Pattaya, married a Danish man and moved with him to a remote community on the Danish coast. Ever since, she has been arranging marriages between lonely Danish fishermen and women from her village back home. We follow four couples as they fight for dignity and struggle to find a way out of poverty and loneliness. We are present when dreams become reality and when life doesn’t go according to plan, when marriages succeed or fail, when children grow up to reap the rewards or pay the price of their mothers’ choices.
