In love with a girl that smells of oranges while in a complicated relationship with his father,Darek is gentle, strong and devoted to his little sister and their herd of horses. Darek’s world is a story about the joy and pain of growing up in the isolated yet beautiful Lusatian Mountains. Here, horses are not expensive specimens of racing stables but beings you should care for and love. Not even that is enough in life though, as Darek finds out nearing the summer’s end, closing his childhood definitely. But just like any ending, this is a start of something new.
