A hot summer and holidays by the river: two families on a campsite who have no need to hide their mutual dislike because they speak different languages; around the campsite we see the locals, who view these foreigners with suspicion. Night after night, a murderer of cows strikes in the surrounding fields, and the animosity between the families develops into a minor, if cultivated war between neighbouring tents. Later the locals storm the site, and one day the mentally subnormal, youngest son of the large family disappears. When he is washed up dead on the banks of the river some days later, everyone is suspected: his brothers, the camp neighbours, the locals – and in the midst of this atmosphere, a youthful holiday romance develops.
