Today‘s eastern Slovakia. The historian Rimko returns here after many years with his young lover to search for answers to the difficult questions of his own life attitudes, mistakes and moral debts in the land of his childhood. His life seems to be balanced even in the hectic times of political changes of recent years. Having worked for twenty years as an expert on the Middle Ages, he feels himself to be a decent man, moderately successful in his profession, and ultimately attractive in his maturity and discretion to his much younger partner. And yet he is eager to prove to himself and his former friends that it is possible to catch up and pay off old debts. Even the seemingly idyllic setting for a beautiful holiday is marred by the brutality of the times - a military defector with stolen ammunition desperately seeks refuge.

War takes its cruel toll, which everyone must pay. It hits a small Slovak village especially hard, where the struggle for a bare life becomes a test of human character. For two impoverished friends, Jakub and Maja, struggling through poverty is more than difficult. Jakub delivers sour milk from somewhere on his cart to the entire village and lives in a dilapidated house with his sister Tereza, whose caregiver and guide through life is the experienced woman Mara, who provides herself with money from seduced soldiers. Maja, on the other hand, is a foundling and homeless man who does whatever he can to survive the next day. The only consolation for the two inseparable friends are the circulating tales of a kind of promised land, where there is no poverty or hunger, and where they could both go. Only this vision, this idea alone keeps the two of them and the rest of the village on their feet, and gives them hope for a better tomorrow.
