In a Czech village, Hyundai tries and succeeds in the end to open a giant car factory, despite protests and refusals from a lot of the locals to sell their land. The eternal tale! With bitter humor, the film follows several people from the village, from those who accepted to sell and those who are systematically pressured by their neighbors that sold, to the ones that stubbornly refuse and even start getting threatened. With absurd and hilarious accents, the story of the field on which cars grow is not singular and it does not present a solved problem, anywhere in the world.
