Johanka had a fling with a well-digger she had not met before and who, she was most likely certain, would never be around again. About 18 years later, she is a single woman respected and recognized at the local co-op farm where she works − except that it does not translate to the same compensation for her as for the male workers − who keeps turning down her life-long suitor, friend and neighbor Berty.

Based on various short stories by the Russian writer Anton Chekhov. It's a crime story, but the films care about the simplicity, routine and repetitious aspects of Oldman's life (Main Character of Film) as much as the crime's aspects.
