News quickly spreads of the murder of a Romany family in a Hungarian village. The perpetrators have escaped and nobody claims to know who might have committed the crime. For another Romany family living closeby, the murder only serves to confirm their fears. Far away in Canada, the head of the family decides that his wife, children and their grandfather must join him as soon as possible. Feeling abandoned, the family tries to get through the day after the attack - yet their hopes of escaping the madness proves illusory. The film is loosely based on an actual series of killings in Hungary that claimed the lives of eight Romany people in less than a year.
