Štefan Pongo is a Roma lorry driver. Fifteen years ago, he emigrated from the Czech Republic to the UK with his family to shield them from the open racial discrimination there. The children have graduated from university and the family is doing well. But hateful sentiments from the old country continue to have an impact. When the Czech president claims that the Roma are work-shy, an angry Štefan asks other Roma to send him photographs on social media of them at work. Štefan receives thousands of photos and becomes a well-known media figure. He starts producing video blogs, organizes anti-racism demonstrations and provides humanitarian aid to Roma settlements in need. All this comes at the cost of time spent with his family. Štefan’s spirited wife, Iveta, has had enough.

A young anthropologist, Zdenka, moves with her husband and three sons to Svalbard,
Norway, to study how life is changing in polar regions. She has received a prestigious two-
year grant to carry out extensive research on the impact of globalisation on the inhabitants
of the world's northernmost town, Longyearbyen. After falling in love with her new home, Zdenka discovers that more than icebergs and permafrost are vanishing in the Arctic. Through conducting interviews with residents, she begins to perceive how heterogeneous the small local community actually is, while also revealing tensions that lie beneath the surface. Zdenka then has to work out the extent to which she can get involved in the local community that she only originally intended to observe.

The mafia is the government, and a reckoning awaits.

The film invites us into the inner world of the translator Anna Kareninová, where the love for language is as strong as for loved ones. Through personal diaries from her travels to France and Italy, we embark on a journey to meet the rhythm of the language of the writers Louis-Ferdinand Céline and Ezra Pound. The honesty with which she approaches the translations of their work is also manifested in her relations to those closest to her. Care for the old apartment she shared with her late husband, poet Petr Kabeš, and the never-ending inner debate over his books and texts only shows the depth of their relationship. The subtle touches of Céline, Pound and Kabeš reflect the delicate world of a woman who is found by the one she seeks.
