A teenage girl goes on a magical journey of selfdiscovery through a surrealistic forest after she is kicked out of school. Tereza crosses the beautiful Slovak countryside en route to the city where her mother lives. During her journey, she has many strange adventures and meets assorted weird characters, including a sad young man who is about to marry a woman old enough to be his mother, an old woman who is buried up to her waist and a man whose job is to destroy as many things as possible.
