Jakob, a young farmer and something of a stranger to the world, has taken over his parents' run-down farm and fights against its decline. When the artist Katja offers to work there as an intern, things seem to turn for the better. Together they build up organic livestock farming, marry and have a son; success arrives. But Jakob finds no peace, and his cruel anger keeps breaking out. Did Katja deceive him? Did she only want to have someone like him for a while, a farmer? A story of origins and existential loss in a rural world, and a landscape, that are changing radically.
