On the eve of her wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father brings three men from her mother’s past back to the island last visited 20 years ago. The magic of ABBA’s timeless songs propels this enchanting tale of love, romance, and friendship. Everyone’s having the time of their lives!
