Minna has the gift of perceiving the innermost essence of people and plants. Just as she listens as a teacher and therapist, she observes nature as a painter. Valerie is fascinated by the shaping forces of water and overwhelmed by her new role as a mother. The women meet each other on the outskirts of Vienna. Inspired by the paintings of Mischa Skorecz, a story unfolds in the tension between past and present, ideal and everyday life, as well as nature and art, where inner development and external events are intricately intertwined. Illustrated with the botanical paintings of Mischa Skorecz.
