The film is about a middle-aged man Rūdis, whose ordinary daily life has been turned upside down when his deepest desire becomes a reality – one day when he enters his home, Rūdis finds his perfect family – a wife and two children. At first the new satisfying emotions and daily life seems like a dream, but after some time the none changing new life asks Rūdis a question - whether his deepest desire is really worth it. The moment of truth comes when Rūdis is brought back to the old, ordinary life. Will Rūdis just go on with his life like nothing ever happened or he will change his life - will go and get the one thing he desires the most?
