The Way Through the Bleak Woods

The Šumava Mountains hide buildings lost in the mountains, the Vydra River, a church, a rectory, marshes, a post office, a gold mine, and a hermit's hut. In this environment, the fates of the beautiful girl Anna, a tormented widow, her perpetually drunk husband—a postman—and dentist Holoubek, who left his native Vienna, intertwine. Over the course of the year, their paths cross, but then the summer of 1914 arrives and war intervenes decisively in the lives of all those involved... However, the characters' desires and quests are timeless.
