在英国威尔士中部地区的一个小农场，科波尔的父母作为难民在那里找到了住所。本片讲述了随着人口的快速增长小规模化农业逐渐消亡，以及当地人机械化耕种前的劳动方式也已经不复存在。

Set in a small farming community in mid Wales, a place where Koppel's parents - both refugees - found a home. This is a landscape and population that is changing rapidly as small scale agriculture is disappearing and the generation who inhabited a pre-mechanised world is dying out. Much influenced by his conversations with the writer Peter Handke, the film maker leads us on a poetic and profound journey into a world of endings and beginnings; a world of stuffed owls, sheep and fire.
