Lukáš, Alžbetka's son, takes off into the world looking for happiness and love. His godmother, the celestial Lady Winter, keeps an eye on him. He arrives late in the fairy-tale land that she leads him to. Fear reigns where once cakes grew on trees. The miraculous ram has disappeared and the royal town is cursed. Lukáš has to decide what is closer to his heart: a fortune or love?

After his acclaimed feature film debut Flower Buds, director Zdeněk Jiráský teamed up with Slovak producer Lívia Filusová to record an event from the most tragic chapter in 20th century history.
