The Šumava Mountains conceal a church, rectory, post office, gold mine, hermit’s hut, the Vydra River and marshes. In this setting, beautiful Anna, a tormented widow, her perpetually drunk postman husband, and dentist Holoubek, a Viennese exile, have their lives intertwined over a year. The summer of 1914 brings war, decisively reshaping their fates, while their timeless desires and quests endure.
