"Flesh of my Flesh" tells the story of how a married couple's relationship and household are changed after a car accident claims their little daughter's life and leaves the wife quadriplegic. Twelve years after the accident Magnus helps Annelie to prepare for their wedding anniversary. Both have seemingly dealt with the effects of the accident and adapted to their situation. In spite of him being estranged from their son Cornelius, Magnus is determined to make the evening a success. Their anniversary starts with jokes and romance but as the frustrations of Annelie's disability become more prominent, their special occasion goes off the rails. It is in a situation of utter powerlessness that Annelie finds her strength and Magnus is forced to face his regrets and pain.
