Right before Christmas Charlotte Ekeblad is given an offer she hardly can refuse, to become a minister in the Swedish Parliament. As minister of environment she is put in a position with no greater power, yet the prime minister comes out as a modern and open minded leader with a young woman in his staff. Charlotte Ekeblad though, is torn between a family life as a woman, and the opportunity to make a career. In the middle of this stands a husband not really sure what to think of becoming number two in the family, and a resistance in the male domination of the government. The pressure builds up and the marriage starts to shake in its foundations. It's time for Charlotte to ask herself if the price for the ability to change is too high.
Charlotte Ekeblad is on her way to Uganda with her so-called family, where her husband has got a top job within Sida. Then the phone rings. It is the prime minister who offers Charlotte the position of environment minister.
Charlotte is strongly opposed by some powerful party friends. And few people dare to stand by her side. But among the Swedish people, on the other hand, she is popular, and that worries her opponents.
Charlotte is caught when she are trying to withhold sensitive information and is held accountable. And it becomes increasingly difficult to combine her family life with her career. So her marriage with Thomas begins to crumble.
As a young and untested environment minister, Charlotte Ekeblad is exposed to tougher scrutiny than she anticipated. So even if she is regarded as a strong political, so is the resistance inside her party very overwhelming.
