La Iglesia Católica atraviesa un momento complicado en Checoslovaquia a principios de los años 80. El régimen comunista amenaza con destruir la institución y la somete a un estricto control, por lo que se ve obligada a aceptar ciertas restricciones relacionadas con la libertad de creencias y de expresión. El clérigo está dividido entre la "iglesia de las catacumbas", que mantiene el contacto con el Vaticano y con la prensa occidental, y la "jerarquía eclesiástica", que coopera con las fuerzas del poder y está representada por sacerdotes pertenecientes a la asociación "Pacem in Terris", cuya vida se extendió en el país desde 1971 hasta 1989. Este es el contexto en el que los jóvenes seminaristas Michal y Juraj tienen que decidir si mantenerse fieles a su vocación e idealismo o arrodillarse ante las presiones de la policía secreta.

Little Sandra likes to play football and admires Ronaldinho. Marián worships trains and wants to be an engine driver. Teenagers Alena and René are expecting a baby and long for it to be born healthy. The trio of Roman, Kristián and Karmen help their parents by collecting junk to be sold and dream of one day having a house with a flush toilet.

As if directing a science-fiction film, Johana Ožvold dissects the story of electronic music. From the pioneer sound engineers working behind the Iron Curtain, through the French avant-garde composers, up to the post-modern creators of digital sonic artefacts, the first-time filmmaker summons an abstract landscape that is haunting and yet achingly beautiful. A voice appears from old television screens forgotten in the maze of some futuristic archive where past and future seem to coexist in a complex and multi-layered way.
