A year in the life of a family in a typical backyard in the center of the Moldovan capital Chisinau in the 1990s: Zina lives here with her husband Victor and daughter Eva and, like the other inhabitants of the house, struggles for the family's financial survival. Through the eyes of the family, we experience a country in transition after the fall of the Iron Curtain.

The story about the pensioner Georgi, who spends the rest of his days somewhere in a remote place in Moldova. The lonely old man earns his living by cleaning cauldrons from soot. About events in the world he learns from the rural newspaper which the local postman brings at the same time every day. Georgi has a serious heart condition and quietly awaits his death. He has reconciled with fate for a long time, when suddenly everything in his life changes radically — and all because of the old rural toilet which turns into a teleport and transports the old man into different corners of the world.
