Christmas Eve is near at Dylgja, north of Bjørgvin. The painter Asle eats his yearly lutefisk with his neighbour Åsleik, but the meal is quiet: he feels finished with painting and gets rid of his last pictures. His namesake and double, the other Asle, is to spend Christmas with Åsleik and his sister Guro, and they set out by boat with two paintings as gifts, as both men's lives are looked back on.
