Tonda is a small, glasses-wearing boy with bronchial disease. And so when his parents and his older brother Jirka take a trip to Paris in the summer of 1968, he has bad luck. He has to stay in the fresh air at a cottage in the Jizera Mountains under the supervision of his grandfather. He is a peculiar descendant of Russian aristocrats, a man of great refinement who has always had to face great history in his life. However, their holiday relationship, which Tonda certainly did not want, is changed by the night of 21 August. The grandfather knows very well what the Russian occupation means, he has a lot to do to calm his frightened grandson. He tries to strengthen him and, despite the turbulent times, to put something good into him, to enrich his soul. He teaches him French, fine dining and, above all, not to give up.
