Geek Hlynur is approaching the grand old age of 30, he still lives with his mother who is divorced from his alcoholic father, downloads cyberporn and wanders around Reykjavík half-heartedly searching for a job while spending lots of time in Kaffibarinn, the central Reykjavík bar (the bar is owned in real life by writer/director Baltasar Kormákur and his soundtrack composer Damon Albarn, a long-standing Icelandophile). The cramped, dark and oddly furnished house in which Hlynur and his mother live features a bath which transfigures into a sofa as Hlynur steps naked out of it, in the middle of the lounge with his mother watching.

The film opens with a wedding rehearsal at a small church in an isolated, barren landscape. At the altar the groom-to-be (Jon, a middle-aged literature professor) is repeatedly interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone, much to the annoyance of the minister. The present narrative alternates with flashbacks, in which the disintegration of Jon's first marriage to Anna (a sensitive artist) is seen. Jon's second wife is a former student half his age, which triggers disapproval by some (including his future in-laws). As preparations for the wedding unfold during the "white night" (the shortest night of the year, when it is never fully dark), the reason for Jon's increasing reluctance to marry is revealed: he and Anna visited the same spot a year earlier, when she died in an accident after discovering Jon and Thora (his former student) making love. The marriage finally takes place, and Jon and Thora settle down to a life very much like the one he had with Anna.
