For her feature debut, Michaela Pavlátová drew upon Slovak author Tina Diosi's psychological story of a mutual search for marital harmony. The film sketches a story of a pianist named Eva (Zuzana Stivínová) who follows her husband, the musician and composer Peter (Peter Bebjak), to a small village near the Slovak-Hungarian border. While Peter is grateful for the peace and quiet he finds there for composing, Eva looks in vain for a chance to play, and feels separated not only from her family but also from familiar Prague surroundings and friends.
