La historia de amor de Arturs, de dieciséis años, se ve interrumpida por la Primera Guerra Mundial. Después de perder a su madre y su hogar, encuentra cierto consuelo al unirse al ejército, porque esta es la primera vez que se permiten batallones nacionales en el Imperio Ruso. Pero la guerra no se parece en nada a lo que Arturs imaginó: no hay gloria, no hay justicia. Es brutal y doloroso. Arturs está ahora completamente solo mientras la guerra acaba con la vida de su padre y su hermano. Además, no se avanza en la pronta resolución prometida de la guerra y el regreso oportuno a casa. Con la idea de que solo él se preocupa por regresar a casa y que su tierra natal es solo un patio de recreo para otras naciones, Arturs encuentra la fuerza para la batalla final y finalmente regresa a casa para comenzar todo desde cero, al igual que su país recién nacido.

In this film a young man and his curmudgeonly grandfather are going 1,800 km to northern Russia in an old Zhiguli car, hoping to find the grave of their great-grandfather, who was deported. The grandfather Andris is sceptic over the lofty quest, initiated by his grand-son, as it’s not known what awaits them at their destination. Andris thinks they won’t find anything and will come back to Latvia without ever learning what happened to his father. However ever-optimistic Kārlis wants to use the journey not only to find answers about the past but also become closer to his grandfather who raised him. They both lost their parents as children.
