Miss April Bergen is a skilled nurse with a secret crush on Dr. Vagn Jochumsen. Unfortunately, he is not really interested in anything other than his career, where he has just discovered a new vaccine. But then he has to go to Greece to exchange experiences with his Greek colleagues. And April is going with him. While the doctor may be a little too distracted and detached when it comes to love, the same cannot be said of the Greek doctors. Now, perhaps, the doctor will wake up from his slumber. Follow Miss April's countless maneuvers in this sparklingly funny film adaptation. It is pure Danish folk comedy spiced with Greek folklore and sunny humor.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
