Wallpaper: An Erotic Love Story

Two young friends, Lass and Sveppi, run a nightclub in downtown Reykjavik. They hire a beautiful young singer, Sól, who has just moved from the countryside to the city in order to take singing lessons. The boys make a bet which one will get the girl into bed first. As time goes on, Lass realizes that he is in love with Sól and wants to give up the bet. Sveppi, on the other hand, has no interest in giving up the bet.
