סרט עלילתי באורך מלא. 1919. כפר קטן באוקראינה, באזור שיוּשב על ידי משפחות חקלאיות גרמניות עשורים רבים קודם לכן. אנטון הצעיר, גרמני קתולי, ויעקב, רוסי יהודי, הם חברים בלתי נפרדים. זו תקופה של תהפוכות רבות, של שסעים אתניים ודתיים, בעקבות מלחמת העולם הראשונה והמהפכה הרוסית. הסרט בוחן את כוחה האוניברסלי של חברות בין ילדים ומראה כיצד זו יכולה לגבור על הדעות הקדומות של עולם המבוגרים, השסוע רגשי שנאה ונקמה.
