‘Caroline – the last journey’ is a modern interpretation of Caroline Mathilde’s marriage to Christian VII, her relationship with Johann Struensee and her subsequent expulsion from Denmark. The film is about a power struggle in a large Danish company. Christian is the company’s external manager, but he is more interested in art than economics. The actual managers, Ove and Juliane, run the company with a heavy hand according to the old traditions, until Christian appoints the innovative and progressive Johan as his personal advisor.

The unflinching tale of Maria, Allan and Steso, who are struggling for survival. Maria is a pusher frau, wandering restlessly among addicts, abusers and bikers in a relentless search for love. Allan has just returned from an ill-fated trip across the Pacific and must reclaim his life and stay clean, but ghosts from his past return to haunt him. Steso, the intellectual, god-forsaken and prophetic cynic, does his utmost to unite the two polar opposites that give meaning to his life: his girl and drugs. All three try desperately to make some sense of the madness, but how do you find meaning in the chaos that is life? And how do you find love if you can't recognize it?
