Loosely inspired by a true story, this tender portrait of marriage asks: what do you do when the person you love has to change? It starts with a question, a simple favour asked by a wife of her husband while both are painting in their studio, setting off a transformation neither can anticipate.

I 1914 ankommer den unge amerikanske enke Gerda Waud til København for at gå på Kunstakademiet. Her forelsker hun sig i sin laerer, maleren Einar Wegener. De gifter sig nogle år senere og slår sig ned i Nyhavn, hvor de indretter bolig og atelier. Et harmonisk aegteskab og et spaendende professionelt parløb tager sin begyndelse. Da Einar i 1925 accepterer at sidde model for Gerda, så hun kan faerdiggøre et billede af en kvinde, skubber de i faellesskab døren op for en tredje person.
