The people depicted in the film have grown up from the Jutland soil and are marked by its toughness, centuries of struggle with the fabled heath, which in its lonely majesty seems to brood over great secrets that it is most reluctant to let go of. The struggle is hard and unspeakably bitter for the frugal Jutland heath farmer, and how many destinies are not buried under the silent monument of the heath?
