Filmul spune povestea emotionanta a unei familii care isi cauta radacinile. Dupa cel de-al doilea razboi mondial, familia Krnác s-a mutat din Slovacia centrala in Ucraina sub-carpatina; un sat din stepa cazaca a devenit casa lor, pentru mai mult de 40 de ani. Cand URSS s-a destramat, ei au decis sa se mute inapoi in Europa, cum ar fi in Slovacia, tara despre care stiau putine, cu exceptia povestilor pe care le auzisera de la parinti. Dar in Slovacia au gasit doar sate neglijate si somaj, iar sansele pentru o viata mai buna sunt slabe. in acest timp, amintirile despre viata lor din sat devin pe zi ce trece mai puternice. Se pune intrebarea: unde este casa lor adevarata?

The film tells the moving story of a family in search of its roots. After the World War II, the Krnác family moved from Central Slovakia to Sub-Carpathian Ukraine, and a village in the Kazakh steppe became their home for more than fourty years. When the USSR ceased to exist, they decided to move back to Europe, i.e. to Slovakia, a country they knew little about, except from the stories they had heard from their parents. But in Slovakia they find neglected villages and unemployment, and the chances for a better life are scarce. Meanwhile, memories of their lives in the Kazakh village get stronger and stronger every day. The question arises: Where is their real home?
