Synopsis
- In Mont, Vreni lives and works with her extended family. Mathis (14), Toni (16) and Remo (18) live with their mother who works the fields using traditional methods, without the help of machinery. On the farm, along with the children, live other young people. There is Rola, who has been here for two weeks thanks to a project called Timeout, which allows youth who have had problems with violence, alcohol, and drugs to experience farm life. There is also Severin who, after a life of crime, has begun a new existence in Mont. Severin, unlike Vreni’s children who love video games, loud music, and have no intention of becoming farmers, loves the animals and the work in the fields. Thanks to the mountains, Severin has found a way to leave drugs behind. This is a story of humanity, generosity, and a harsh life in the Swiss mountains.
