Fredrik Wikingsson & Filip Hammar
Den sista resan
När Lars Hammar efter 40 år som älskad fransklärare i Köping går i pension ser han framför sig en ljuvlig “tredje ålder” med resor, vin och upplevelser tillsammans med sin fru Tiina. Men det blir inte som han tänkt sig. I stället för att ta för sig av livets goda blir Lars alltmer passiv och viljelös hemma i sin läderfåtölj, till både Tiinas och deras son Filips stora frustration, och förtvivlan. Då får Filip en idé – att ta sin skröpliga gamla far till hans älskade Frankrike och låta honom återse de platser som han älskat mest i livet.
