Allegro

As we grow, we gain all kinds of experiences. We have joys, disappointments and we meet a lot of people who, most of the time, will eventually hurt us. Still, we keep playing the game of life often wanting to eliminate, for once, any hint of emotion and sentimentality or to completely erase the memories of 

those people that hurt us.

Zetterström (Ulrich Thomsen) is a brilliant pianist. His inability to accept his mistakes has led him to a constant self-improvement excercise that does not let him to love anything but his music. As a result, his girlfriend Andrea (Helena Christensen) leaves him. Given this loss, Zetterström chooses to hide in the depths of himself, forgetting his past and focusing (even more) in his career.

Ten years later, Zetterström has achieved fame as a musician, lives in America and has not returned to Copenhagen, his hometown, since then. His memories, far from being buried in him, have chosen to live freely in "The Zone", a mysterious place where no one can access (and therefore no one knows what is  in there) and that occupies a large area of ​​the Danish capital.

When Zetterström returns due to a concert, Tom (Henning Moritzen) comes in the scene, a mysterious character who will introduce him to "The Zone", making him realize he has forgotten so much of his life, though it may already be too late to recover what he has lost...

"The Zone" is a place feared by some and unknown to all, a labyrinthine territory that changes at every step and prevents you from passing twice through the same site. A conceptual trap that in the end, after long suffering and thanks to some Faith, awaits us with what we most desire.

According to Christoffer Boe, human beings cannot be happy without memories or emotions. In fact, all Zetterström gets by erasing his past is to conceal how unhappy he actually is. To realize this he needs the figure of Tom, a kind of Platonic demiurge who decides to side with the experienced musician and help him, through his suffering and confrontation, to see the light.
