synopsis

Pavel’s childhood was strongly influenced by restitution of a huge homestead. Currently he’s thirty six years old and remained the only member of the family with will and vision to bring new life to the decaying farm. Yet due to property disputes he has no right to do so. The fatal bond with the place makes Pavel question his true identity.

(FAMU/ director's text)
