92 year old John Hoiland is running his large ranch in Montana all by himself. Rich people are lining up to buy his property, but John's wealth is not in the value of the ranch. It lies in the freedom to work his own land.

For three decades, Erling Brekke was a police officer on Askøy who was also a cinematographer, documenting everything that took place after Second World War to preserve the memory of the world as it was then, and filling it with love for the island and the people.

Magnar and Oddny Kleiva have led their entire lives on their small mountain farm in Norway, seemingly unaffected by the riches of modern society. One day relatives from the US come to visit, and invite them to see where their grandmothers sister emigrated to in 1890. But will the brother and sister in their seventies dare the long journey, having barely left the county before?

The siblings Magnar and Oddny never left their childhood home. They run the family farm as it was run by several generations before them. Time seems to be standing still, as it is running out.
