Visan kan framföras av kända artister på de stora scenerna, men den lever också i vår vardag och ackompanjerar ofta viktiga högtider i våra liv. Med rötter i 1600-talet har den sjungits i både slott och koja och många vispoeter har blivit mycket folkkära. Visan är den mest enkla och anspråkslösa av genrer, bara en text och en melodi, men ändå har den en unik livskraft och har lyckats överleva i vår moderna högteknologiska tid. En film av Ditte Hammar och Heleen Rebel.
