When Beatrice is stranded in Stockholm after her Swedish boyfriend dumps her, she refuses to admit defeat and return stateside. She finds a job as a home helper for elderly Swedes and soon discovers that one of her clients is a victim of abuse. Will she be able to protect the victim, or be caught in the crossfire of drug deals and family secrets? Set in Stockholm in the early 1970s, Knowing Place tells the story of a spirited young American struggling to understand her surroundings, and herself, with the help of political refugees from Chile and the natives who know Sweden best: elderly people.
