Ominous cranes overlook Natasha's land at the edge of Kyiv, which year after year is being pushed deeper into a pit by new panel buildings.

From a bird's-eye view of the farm, a sharp contrast emerges between the village and the city. This peculiar family business model is set forth in a four-year chronicle from the point of view of foreign visitors who don't interfere with the way of life that the family has lived for generations.
