For you, one day in your life can be the most important day you will ever experience while the same day for another is an ordinary day at work. En dag i livet is the story of how fate brings together our lives. The documentary series is based on a large hospital in Eastern Norway. Here we follow the stories of patients, merged with the stories of doctors and other staff at the hospital. We witness the contrasts between what patients may be the most dramatic moment of life and, as for others, it's just a normal day at work. A day in life is true, close stories of the crucial day, the crucial moment you never forget, and experiences that determine how the rest of life will look.
