The film’s protagonists are women from a single family: two young sisters, their mother, and grandmother. In the summer, the younger women visit the older ones—but in reality, they come to reconnect with their roots. The household is matriarchal. Men handle background and daily tasks, while women are in charge of what is primary and sacred: they read fortunes, gather herbs from the meadows, and bathe in the sauna. The women of the future, like those of the past, are engaged in a cycle of ritual family events: weddings, childbirth, funerals. The mother repeats her own mother’s life path, while the daughters unknowingly follow the trails of their mother and grandmother. The inertia of these repetitions possesses such overwhelming, almost mythic power that it cannot be resisted.
