Anežka (Jenovéfa Boková) est une jeune femme tranquille, journaliste et musicienne, pour qui toute relation, familiale ou amoureuse doit se dérouler sans aspérité, même au prix d'une renonciation à son propre point de vue, qu'elle se cache à elle-même comme elle se refuse à l'exprimer. Ce film présente des situations de la vie quotidienne, que ce soit avec ses amants, déjà mariés et pères de famille, sa grand-mère octogénaire volubile et atteinte d'un cancer, sa mère dépressive au long cours, son père dynamique, son grand-père sénile à l'hôpital. La réalisatrice donne une grande importance aux paysages naturels, avec notamment un panorama récurrent vallonné présenté aux différentes saisons de l'année marquant ainsi le temps qui passe. Dans la seconde partie du film, l'héroïne finit par se dévoiler un peu, notamment à l'occasion d'une visite chez une psy, marquée par des silences durables ou sa nuit avec un musicien slovaque. Les dernières séquences marquent une ouverture sur la nature et une sérénité optimiste.
