Elements that control the Earth – Air, Fire, Earth and Water – subject people to a “regular inspection”. We watch Water on behalf of all of the elements; people call it the Rain Nymph. She wanders through the country dressed like a poor woman. She finds that people started to think mainly of money and that love and good wither away. One of these people is farmer Lakota (Miroslav Donutil) whose son Ondra (Jakub Gottwald) is in love with poor Květuška (Viva Kerekes). The farmer is not happy to see their love. When the elements come back to the Sun, they demand severe punishment. The Sun hesitates, it knows that people are people, and likes them despite their failures but is outvoted. The Rain Nymph (Lenka Vlasáková) helps him in the last moment. She asks the Sun whether she could punish the people herself, and takes rain away from people. The country suffers from draught. People have nothing to harvest, grain does not grow and straw is almost burnt. Lakota uses the situation and promises to Ondra that he can marry Květuška under the condition that she provides for rain. She goes to the Rain Nymph and has to complete three tasks. The tasks are difficult, very difficult and Květuška and Ondra will not have won even after they are completed. Lakota is incorrigible... But do not be afraid, good and love will finally win as is usual in fairy-tales. (official distributor synopsis)
