The Estonian documentary by Kaupo Kruusiauk is about two families with opposing views on mowing grass and gardening.
Larissa and Arvo Pajo live near Rapla. They value caring for your grass and garden and spend an average of two hours on their yard every day. Yardwork is central to their lives and seems to be the guardian of their relationship.
Anne Roolaht and Harvi Varkki are jewelry designers who live in Merivälja. Their philosophy is to care for their grass as little as possible. Nature should be allowed to sprawl and develop on its own. Not mowing their grass also means that animals living in their garden have a nicer environment.
The documentary looks at these two families with different
understandings of yard and garden care. Through their attitudes towards their yards and nature, we see into the interpersonal relationships of two couples and their correspondingly differing views on life.
