Synopsis

Matúš is a talented musician who gave up his successfully developing career when his adoptive mother fell ill. After her death, he’s living with his stepbrother Dávid and together they go through life, each in their own way. While Dávid accepts whatever life brings to him, Matúš feels frustrated by his failed ambitions. On his way to their fulfilment, he meets his old schoolmate Albert, who opens doors to the “better” world for him. Unlike Dávid, who found his happiness in a home for seniors, Matúš cannot find his joy despite the success he’s having. He observes the simple life of his brother, which is richer in its simplicity. He slowly comes to realise that happiness is a state of mind hidden in small things and the life we live is not just about us, but about those we live for.
