A powerful family tragedy about misconceptions and true identities.

After more than 40 years, Josefa returns to her parents’ farm in the village she’d once stormed out of. Back then, she was still Josef. Now she lives as a woman. A lot has changed since then, and she must confront her memories, especially concerning Petra, to whom she was once married. Unexpressed emotions and misunderstandings flare up.
