Emma (Line Kruse) is an eleven‑year‑old only child of a wealthy Danish family whose parents are preoccupied with their own lives. After overhearing her mother lament the tragedy of a kidnapping, Emma stages her own. She meets Malthe, a naïve, kind sewer‑cleaner, and convinces him she is a Russian princess fleeing Bolsheviks. He shelters her in his modest home. After a few days Emma decides to return, but discovers her parents are oddly indifferent to her disappearance.
