I mitt lune hi

A solitary middle-aged man decides to rent out the basement apartment in his house. A young single mother moves in with her daughter. Soon the three of them form a kind of family unit: he helps them with day-to-day matters, she brings life and vitality into his existence. They go for walks in the forest and celebrate Christmas together; he looks after her daughter.

Fifteen years later, they find themselves in a courtroom. He is in the dock; she reels from the devastating realization that her sense of safety was an illusion. How did they end up here?

In My Cozy Lair is an elegant, seductive, and deeply disturbing portrayal of two people who overstep boundaries in each other’s lives. A story of self-deception and transgression, inspired by real events.
