A contemporary Czech village. Vast fields surround a small farm, where fifty-year-old Josef works with his wife Eva and three children. Josef tries to live an alternative life and leads a quixotic fight against the local agribusiness. Because of this, his family suffers. He forbids his children to use computers, mobile phones and the Internet, which is especially difficult for sixteen-year-old Žofka. The agribusiness belongs to Viktor, who is walking in the footsteps of his dominant father. His eighteen-year-old son Míra, who has been living with his mother in Prague for over a year, is coming to Viktor’s place for the holidays. Míra becomes close to Žofka, but their relationship is turbulent, especially when both teenagers start to stand up to their domineering fathers.
