How To Be Married

Sidsel and Christian are both 26 years old and live together on a family farm in countryside. They have known each other for ten years, been together for six, and they are finally getting married. This has been Sidsel’s dream ever since she met Christian, because she is quite romantic and consistently calls Christian ‘my prince’. At the same time, she feels that getting married is necessary to keep the magic in the relationship and to “feel something inside”.

Sidsel and Christian have a unique and straightforward approach to the world and to love. They both have Down’s syndrome which means they relate to the world and to each other with complete honesty and no filter – often looking at things from a surprisingly poetic and unusual viewpoint and with a philosophical take on life that we can all learn from.
