Sünopsis

The two farmsteads of the Robberˊs Hill (Vargamäe) - Mäe and Oru - have been in conflict with each other since the days of youth of their old masters. Although both farmsteads are now in the hands of younger generation, their mutual resentment has not disappeared. The old masters can not make peace with each other even in their last days and conflict is instigated by the fact that Oru has no suitable heir. After all, the old of the Robberˊs Hill are convinced that it is the farmstead that must last even if man dies. Next to the old there is the youth of the Robberˊs Hill, struggling with work, life and love, just like in old days. Yet, one of them is seeing the hard work in the marshes and fields of the Robberˊs Hill, his so-called voluntary toil, as a redemption in his failed life. One year follows another. People come, change and go but the Robberˊs Hill remains unchanged.
