A serene Saturday morning on an ostrich farm. The family is preparing for breakfast: the mother has made cutlets, the daughter is helping set the table, while the father and son are tending to ostrich eggs.

Their peaceful routine is suddenly disrupted by the arrival of a school inspector, who announces that a teenager has gone missing in the town — and their children may be involved. Chaos ensues: unverified facts, suspicions, denials, contradictory information, fabricated and real truths intertwine, confronting the family with inevitable danger.

What happens after the total denial of truth, and how radical can this denial become?
What happens when everyone believes that nothing has happened?
