A rural family lives in a cottage in the middle of nowhere. Isolated from the world, they have achieved a perfect balance by creating an atmosphere where joy and family harmony reign. But the opening of an abandoned highway that passes next to their property turns its existence into an ingenious race against the outside world. Although at first they keep their carefree routine, the hundreds of cars passing fast and loud will change their lives and will test their wit, their strength and their willingness to stay at their dream home, where they are trying to protect their particular lifestyle.
