Vatanen, a journalist, is feeling burned out and sick of the city. One summer evening, he and a photographer set out on an assignment, and as they drive through the country, the car hits a young hare.

This small incident becomes a turning point in Vatanen's life as he decides to break free from the world's constraints.
