Crotchety retired doctor Isak Borg travels from Stockholm to Lund Sweden with his pregnant and unhappy daughter-in-law Marianne in order to receive an honorary degree from his alma mater. Along the way they encounter a series of hitchhikers each of whom causes the elderly doctor to muse upon the pleasures and failures of his own life. These include the vivacious young Sara a dead ringer for the doctor's own first love.
