A girl named Tota loves to wander everywhere. In her dreams, she discovers distant realms and longs to know the whole world. However, one day her carefree wandering is interrupted by her grandfather's memories of the totalitarian regime in which he grew up. Tota wants to learn about her grandfather's past and therefore sets off to a distant totalitarian state. When she sees with her own eyes what is happening there, she decides to help the people living under the regime. She meets dissidents, totalitarian prohibitions and orders, and also the powerful and terrifying King Totáč. Will Tota manage to overthrow him?
