Vibrant lady Irena Ditrichová owns a large prosperous firm with subsidiaries abroad. After being involved in a serious car crash, she decides to sell the firm and use the proceeds for helping people in need. When her son Jaroslav finds out that she´s started handing round her possessions which he was supposed to inherit, under the pressure of his very materialistic wife he starts trying to have his own mother declared legally incapacitated. But grandson Lukáš comes to Granny´s help and engages a lawyer, her friend of long standing. During the court hearing the lawyer develops an essential reflection: is it possible to declare that a parent is suffering of dementia only because she handles her possessions freely even despite the disapproval of her children?
