The aging veterinary Jan who tries to find a decent way out of his marriage that has become his cage. His last straw is his Grandfathers death, who fought the same inner battle, while his wife, now  widow – still in good faith of doing him a favour – keeps deciding everything. Jan’s wife Olga is also convinced that she is in charge of their happiness, while Jan is increasingly scared of following his Grandfathers path. He keeps testing more and more peculiar strategies to re-liberate himself and eventually chooses an absurdly adventurous and very uncomfortable way into the wilderness to find out there is no simple manual for reaching his vision of freedom.
