Synopsis:

A long way off. Two thousand eight hundred and fifty-two kilometers between Brno and Diveyevo, between East and West, between father and son. Far away but so close. At the end of the summer holidays, Witt and his son, Grissa, embark on a long journey to Russia. As soon as they get into the car, the son puts on his headphones and the father sinks into the memories. The two of them still can't escape from each other. But there is one thing that can bring them together – a common quest. But what are they really looking for?
