Ambassadors is a documentary about western diplomats and their special lives. The film follows a diplomatic family, Lindholms. Glen is an experienced diplomat working in the Finnish Embassy in New Delhi. He has made a long career in the third world countries. His wife Tuovi is originally a laboratorian, but has now concentrated in being a diplomat’s wife – which is hard work. They have three children, two of which already have their own lives. The youngest, Annette, encounters a new world and culture when the family moves to India.

The film views the international community and intercourse of the diplomats in India and Nepal. The diplomats meet each other often, both formally and informally. In a way, their life is some sort of an own culture. Often the difference between the time spent inside the embassy’s walls and the outside world is wide.
