Not a choice, but the fate of the Štvanci people brought together Jan and Jurgen, who had just returned from the front. Both men are looking for Agnes, wife and sister in one person. She is still fleeing through the wild forests, pursued by the most powerful man in the district for her testimony. The path leads across the mountains to the knowledge of the fate of a mutual bond, into which Jan's first love Marie unexpectedly enters. 7 days home to the game reserve Čečel becomes a symbol of mutual search and longing for a lost home.
