Darek lives with his father and sister in a mountain village on the Czech-German-Polish border. His life changes after his mother's death. He has more freedom, but life has lost its luster. His mother could solve problems playfully and imaginatively; his father struggles with them – he's shut himself off, drowns his sorrows with alcohol, and puts too much of a burden on Darek's shoulders. Darek is growing up fast. He’s getting tougher and earning respect. And the charming Hanka has eyes for him. When his father loses his job, he can no longer keep the family together. But then pops up an old friend, Uli, bringing new prospects: they'll breed horses together. His dad gets caught up in the idea, picks himself up, and their problems seem to be over. Darek eagerly helps out and the horses give him new meaning, prestige and love. Now he can impress Hanka and score more points than his rival Hugo. But nothing is forever… (Zlín Film Festival)
