Mother's Elling Plot and Cast
Elling has spent his entire life in his mother's apartment, reading and observing neighbors while she handles practical matters. He feels no need for others' company, so he dreads her sudden plan for a beach vacation in Spain. He agrees only because he believes a woman her age needs a man beside her. What he refuses to see is that she is very sick, and this last trip is her attempt to make him understand that life is bigger than their living room.
