The Danish family film I am William is based on the book by the same name by Kim Fupz Aakeson. William's father is dead, and his mother suffers from mental disorders, so William lives with his uncle Nils. Nils has retired early but deals in buying and selling different things he can get for cheap. He also plays cards for money, and when he finds himself in debt to a local gangster, William has to step in and help his uncle out of trouble. At the same time, he is trying to find a way to approach his friend Viola who he has fallen in love with. Katrine Sommer Boysen at Jyllands-posten calls the film "one of the most charming Danish children's films in many years".
