At the website of Sentralen the following, among other things, is written about Jeg er ikke her* (I am not here):

"Five actors on a catwalk fight for the attention while sliding in and out of different roles: The stay-at-home dad with economic anxieties, the couple of parents who are pulled between career options and the wish for a third child, the Philippine au pair who talks to her son on Skype and the hosting mother who feels like an outsider when she sees her child with the woman who takes care of him."
