Three generations live side by side. The wilful, jack-in-all-pots grandmother blackmails the family with fake faintings, while grandpa suffers from cerebral sclerosis. Mother manages a fashionable hotel, she needs to look smart and unyielding, even when their weird uncle drives into the restaurant drunk. Father is an introverted, solitary teacher, who from time to time turns the home inside out in pursuit of his hobby, i.e. topography, and his mental balance. Suddenly unexpected things come to light about their teen-age daughter, Juli. Then the adults feel urged to turn over a new leaf, perhaps with another or others. After the marriage jubilee which instead of peace brought a new scandal, the parents take a bath in the lake at night together with Juli and her friends. This could mean something promising for the future. (official distributor synopsis)
