Geologist Lena receives the news that her father Gottfried, who abandoned her eight years ago, is terminally ill. With a heavy heart, she travels back to her home village in the mountains with her young daughter. A journey into a difficult past, as Lena is not only confronted with Gottfried's rejection, but also with her former great love Anton, whom she has never been able to forget and who is now married to the enterprising and scheming Magda.
