Trata de implicarse más en la educación del niño, que ha pasado demasiado tiempo a cargo de su madre, Ana, y quiere ayudarle a superar sus miedos irracionales. Cuando la fábrica que Csilla dirige decide contratar a empleados extranjeros, la paz de esta pequeña comunidad se verá perturbada, y las inquietudes afectarán también a los adultos.
