A woman ponders over the strange coincidences that made her forefathers and -mothers meet and create the premises for her becoming the person that she is.

"Kaspar" is the aspiring poet who's hit a brick wall. His psychiatrist suggests that the best solution might be for him to take an holiday in Norway (it's cheaper than France!). Off he goes where he befriends a farmer who's distant relative twelve times removed is the very poet "Kaspar" wants to meet. He stays at the farm for a while but is soon distracted from his original goal by the beautiful daughter. She is promised to the son of the next door neighbour, however, so he has to return home sad and dejected. She vows never to cut her hair until they meet again and it's only after a very helpful cow and a dead rhymester (independently) intercede that the couple manage to meet again. That gives rise to even more serendipity and the ability of our narrator to tell us all about the story of just how interconnected even the most random of incidents can be. It's a fun animation this, simple line-drawn characters with a solid and quite entertaining story that augments Liv Ullman's narration with some other jovial observations about country living, tourists, death and tradition. I'm not sure it does much for the Norwegian postal service, though!
