Anna’s grandmother is forced to leave the farm that was her home for 60 years when Anna’s uncle sells it to clear his gambling debts. Anna (30), her mother Rosi (55) and her aunt Hilda (60) visit the farm one last time to pick up the family’s few remaining belongings. Anna takes a trip down memory lane. The farm was her favourite place to go as a child and was where she had the most freedom and her best adventures. Everything is brought into sharper focus as she touches all the objects and looks around for the last time, aware that an era is coming to an end. She wants to hold on to this moment forever, but it’s time to say goodbye.
