Architekt Christian Dahl zabiera ze sobą do domku letniskowego nad Morzem Północnym swoją gosposię o imieniu Nook, żeby mogła tam otrząsnąć się po śmierci matki. Wkrótce Nook odkrywa przed nim swoją trudną przeszłość, a Christian stwierdza ku swojemu przerażeniu, że ta egzotyczna piękność, tak młoda, że mogłaby być jego córką, szalenie go pociąga. Mieszkańcy pięknych, dziedziczonych z pokolenia na pokolenie domków letniskowych pod Szarą Wydmą oddychają unoszącym się znad Morza Północnego powietrzem i rozkoszują się słońcem, tak samo jak od dawna miały w zwyczaju robić ich rodziny.

Dyrektor Bodil Eriksen zaszywa się sama w należącym do niej i jej brata Christiana domku letniskowym nad Morzem Północnym, żeby mieć trochę czasu na refleksję przed ślubem z wyrafinowanym Ibem. Wkrótce zjawia się tam Bue Ravn, bezczelny i zarazem atrakcyjny stolarz, który ma naprawić w domu kilka rzeczy. Kobieta uważa, że Bue zdecydowanie na zbyt wiele sobie pozwala, i pełna wzburzenia usiłuje go poskromić. Nie udaje jej się to, a konflikty między nimi przybierają na sile. Napięta atmosfera staje się niemalże nie do zniesienia i eksplozja jest już tylko kwestią czasu.
