In a luxurious villa on the island of Rab, one summer was carefree for Luka and Andjela, full of laughter, guests and perfect reviews. However, behind the perfect season stood a man who hid a past heavier than all the suitcases he brought into the house. Stipe, a loyal butler, protector and silent manipulator, reveals many truths in his diary: how the villa where he served was bought, how he spent his youth in the rapture of Paris with two fatal women, and the fall of one of them marked him forever... While he provides the children with a "summer without blemish", he is overtaken by the ghosts of the past - debt, a sense of guilt and the fear that someone has come to collect payment.

Socialist Croatia, 1950.

However, many locals are unsure of the political trajectory of the new, recently established goverment and start leaving their homes, searching for a better life abroad. However, two best friends, Bepo and Mirko, imbued by the recent reports of supernatural activity in the area, decide to stay in the village and protect their home from the clutches of black magic.
