A family has to leave the summer cottage, provided and owned by the state, after the head of the family dies. The expulsion is going under various pretexts: the authority is no longer valid, the leasing period has ended... The last hours before leaving are full of fuss, packing, confusion... And in this force majeure, stressful situation true family relationships come out, seen clearly through the attitude of family members to departure and to the very existence of this house. It turns out that close relatives don't know each other, having completely different values in life. Apparently, the family is evicted due to their closest friends, and the most faithful are those whom we usually do not even notice...
