Summary

A lyrical story about remembering on one autumn day. The act of flying kites reminds a father of a long-ago childhood memory which leads to a misunderstanding and destroys the bond between him and his son. (The film is part of the Made in FAMU distribution project – digital distribution in Czech cinemas.)
