Most alarming of all, she's given the impossible task of leading the supremely untalented children's soccer team to victory. The fastidious Britt-Marie soon finds herself being drawn into the daily doings of her fellow citizens, an odd assortment of miscreants, drunkards, layabouts. When Britt-Marie walks out on her cheating husband and has to fend for herself in the miserable backwater town of Borg-of which the kindest thing one can say is that it has a road going through it-she finds work as the caretaker of a soon-to-be demolished recreation center.
But hidden inside the socially awkward, fussy busybody is a woman who has more imagination, bigger dreams, and a warmer heart that anyone around her realizes. It's just that sometimes people interpret her helpful suggestions as criticisms, which is certainly not her intention. She is not one to judge others-no matter how ill-mannered, unkempt, or morally suspect they might be. A disorganized cutlery drawer ranks high on her list of unforgivable sins.
