A dramatic story of a mother and daughter set in the late 1980s. The film tells the story of Lilian, a young mother whose life has not been easy. She has an intellectual disability and, to make matters worse, suffered a traumatic assault during her adolescence. The relatively idyllic life she shares with Mrs. Holasová, who cares for both Lilian and her young daughter Malvína, is shattered by the death of the eldest member of this three-generation trio of women. Lilian and Malvína’s lives are thus turned upside down literally from one moment to the next.

Olda, a seventeen-year-old teenager, awaits his trial in a detention center for juveniles. There, he tries to fill the void of prison’s monotony and reminisces about the brutal assault he committed on a homeless man, that resulted in his death. However, his memory is just as imperfect and incomplete as the effort to understand his unreasonable violence.

The last drop for Jan's resolution is the voluntary death of his father-in-law, whose strength and patience ran dry. Grandma made decisions about Grandpa's life, old age as well as the funeral.

He longs to control his own life again. And his solution is escape from the present life. In this movie we watch, in parallel ,the fates of Jan's married daughters Olinka and Alenka and his sons-in-law Erik and Pepík.

Three lifelong friends - Irena, who dreams of owning her own home; Marta, a pharmacist yearning to host a radio show; and Alex, who seeks a genuine relationship but becomes entangled with her charismatic, much-older boss - support one another through bold schemes to outwit romantic obstacles.
