Sweet Disaster tells the story of Frida: German-Finnish, painting therapist and 40 years old. Two events change the usual course of her life. She gets unexpectedly pregnant, and Felix, the father of her child, breaks up with her to reunite with his ex. Felix admits that it is not the best timing, but it does not prevent him from leaving. Unable to accept Felix’s decision, Frida tries to get him back with the help of absurd, exaggerated and sometimes absolutely comic actions — despite some complications with the pregnancy
