After the sudden death of his wife, the film's protagonist, Mr. Jochec, must take on the responsibility of caring for his two teenage children—his daughter Vanesa and his son Petr, who has a severe autism spectrum disorder. Previously often working away from home, Mr. Jochec now has to manage everything on his own, keeping his family together. While many fathers in such situations choose to leave, he decides to face the challenge head-on, enduring a daily struggle—from providing devoted care for both children and securing the family’s financial stability to running the household.
