While their meeting in A Man Called Ove is by chance (a homeless Ove stows away on a train to get some rest and awakens sitting across from a beautiful lady), here, Otto sees Sonya drop a book and then rushes to return it to her. Instead, the focus of the flashbacks (beyond a quick montage of Otto's childhood) begins when Otto meets Sonya (Rachel Keller), the woman who would become his wife.
