Klara is 9 years old and she lives with her grandfather, a chimney sweep. One day he gets to the hospital, and so begins Klara's journey through the "grandmothers". Each of them has her own idea of what a girl should be like: Klara wears pink ruffles and goes hiking in the Czech mountains, participates in an action for the protection of animals and learns to play the guitar, bakes pies and spends the night in the cemetery. She misses her grandfather very much and tells him everything in letters. Where will these wanderings lead Clara? Will her grandfather come back to her?
