Two work colleagues, both married with children, find themselves in situations that challenge their views on sexuality, gender norms and gender roles. One has a sexual relationship with another man, but doesn't experience it as an expression of homosexual longing or infidelity. The other suddenly starts having dreams in which he sees himself as a woman. This unsettles and upsets them. 
The first opus in The Oslo Trilogy (Love and Dreams are to follow), Dag Johan Haugerud's Sex is a film full of conversation, where witty puns, whether straight or gay, challenge normative images of masculinity and society in modern urban Norway.
