Synopsis

Tina (Eva Melander), who was born with a facial disfiguration due to a chromosome disorder, works as a border guard who's highly effective because she has the ability to sense or smell how people feel, especially when they are fearful or ill at ease.

This ability has helped her catch people such as teenagers with illegal alcohol or drugs and pedophiles with child pornography. But when Vore (Eero Milonoff), a man with the same facial features and a knowing smirk crosses her path, Tina is immediately attracted to him. They begin a relationship that uncovers secrets in Tina's life.

In Swedish with English subtitles.

Based on the short story Gräns by John Ajvide Lindqvist.
