For each child holidays are associated with a carefree spare time. But what if there is slack discipline away, and rest is the last thing that you can afford? The film is about a summer camp participants, where the almost military discipline are on the agenda, and crime is the biggest piece of chocolate candy bar. At some point, they're getting tired, discouraged and homesick. Each of them has to deal with those problems differently. But how children should deal with mature problems?
