Description
A family saga about the depth of human desire to protect loved ones and decades of hidden guilt... Klára moves into her grandmother's house in Prague after breaking up with her boyfriend. She is accompanied by her roommate Viktor, with whose help she embarks on the renovation of her new home. When she accidentally finds an old suitcase in the attic, she has no idea that the contents will uncover a secret that was meant to remain forever lost in the past. Klára gradually reveals the story of the young Lucie's family, who, after the hardships of World War II, face even greater suffering. Centuries-old rural rules are collapsing under the pressure of the socialist regime, farmers are being arrested, their property nationalized, and peasant families are losing their homes. Lucie's family is also forced to endure repeated injustices and humbly accept irreversible life losses. But what role does Klára's grandmother play in the whole story, and why does she not want Klára to continue her search?
