It's the 1960s. Lyndon Johnson is President of the United States, the Vietnam War is raging, and things are changing all over the world. When Birgit Svenson, a young Swedish woman, sees an advertisement for an au pair in America, she is sure going there would be an exciting adventure compared to life in her small hometown. A nice, innocent young woman (except for that summer day on an island in the Baltic Sea), Birgit has many dreams and aspirations-and decides that Connecticut will not be a bad place to start. She applies for the job and is hired by Brad and Lindsey Fillmore, a wealthy couple with a precocious 11-year-old daughter, Elizabeth. Birgit and Elizabeth become close, but the Swedish woman's relationship with the young girl's mother, an exotic beauty and temperamental artist, is rocky. Still, all goes smoothly until Elizabeth accidentally sees Birgit trying on an expensive dress in Lindsey's closet-one Birgit had wanted for herself but couldn't afford. The dress, of course, fits the young au pair perfectly, and soon she is thinking of other things in the Fillmore household that might fit her as well...
