Hlynur is twenty-eight years old unemployed. He still lives with his mother, doesn’t have a successful job, spends his days online and watching TV and watching girls at the bar. However, such a cozy life suffers a blow when it turns out that his mother is a lesbian and her girlfriend from Spain has moved to live with them. 101 Reykjavik is a black comedy about a very strange love triangle, a funny tale about sexual orientation and a culture of inaction in the fashionable Icelandic capital, Reykjavik.
