Panny z Wilka

After the death of his friend, a man decides to go to the countryside and visit the place he used to be in his youth - the houses of his uncle and the neighboring ladies (the titular Panny z Wilka). He finds them all together. Walks, memories, shared meals, crossing the river – all these activities take place in search of the lost time. Interestingly enough, it seems that they happen beyond time.
