Hay meadows are a central element of traditional agriculture in the Eastern Carpathians. They are also extremely species-rich habitats. Vulnerable and protected throughout Europe. The film tries to capture the links between man and wildlife as they meet on the hay meadows. A sustainable way of life in decline and the responsibility of our society to preserve it.
