The Garden
Jakub runs away from the city and moves into the abandoned house of his grandfather. The house is surrounded by a large garden and Jakub slowly gets enchanted by the magic and personified charm of the place. He is then even able to settle his unharmonious relationships with the ones dear to him as well as to find out where he really belongs.
The Garden is the story of thirty year old Jakub at a time when he is being faced with one problem after another. He is unable to work out his relationship with a married woman, his job is unsatisfying and he and his father don't understand each other. Jakub decides to make a major change in his life and so leaves for several days for the deserted house of his grandfather in the country. He doesn't suspect that his sojourn at that puzzling place will be prolonged. The extraordinary world in which he suddenly find himself helps him to see things in a different way.
