"Open
Hearts" tells a heartbreaking story, for both the protagonists and spectators,
at least for those who can identify themselves with one or more of its
characters.
The story
begins by showing how happy Cæcilie (Sonja Richter) and Joachim (Nikolaj Lie
Kaas) are: this is not a perfect idyll, but a couple who gives and shows each other sincerity and tenderness; a handsome young couple who without
being seducers has been seduced. By all accounts, this is a couple who will be
facing a very long story.
