Ten-year-old Karo grows up with her parents in an Amsterdam commune in the Seventies.
As an only child, she leads a carefree existence in this utopia-for-adults. The mandate says that everything is to be shared in the squat.
But soon not everyone is able to honour these ideals, leading Karo to get caught in the crossfire of the internal conflicts that start to divide the group.
Karo slowy realizes that nothing can stay the same forever.
