A troubled young doctor Nikola, is struggling to right himself after the death of one of his patients. The story is told through the eyes of Nikola, who is running away and he goes at his grandfather place in country side.

Nikola is a young doctor traumatized by the death of one of his patients. Struggling to pull himself together, he flees from the city to stay at his grandfather's place in the countryside. There he comes to appreciate his grandfather's values and strives to live by them. Love, he comes to realize, is the hardest job of all. It is not something to be learn but something we already have; and yet finding love again involves unlearning what we think it means. For Nikola the aim is to become "the pure human being I was as a child".—Ilija Piperkoski
