Sweet Disaster tells the story of Frida, a 40 year-old painting therapist, as two events change the usual course of her life. First: she gets unexpectedly pregnant. Second: Felix, the father of her child, breaks up with her to reunite with his ex who is suddenly back. Felix admits that it is not the best timing, however it does not prevent him from leaving and sending Frida's life into catastrophe. Frida cannot accept his decision, and despite some serious health problems caused by the late pregnancy, she tries to get Felix back with the help of some absurd and exaggerated decision-making.
