synopsis:

Alone, surrounded by deep forests, little boy Vašek sees something strange in the sky. His biological mother Iveta’s unexpected request catches his adoptive parents Jan and Pavel by surprise. Can the adults understand the young child’s emotions, or will Vašek have to face his fears all by himself? The dense film tells a story in an almost apocalyptic tone about the destructive power of fear and the painful path to mutual closeness.
