The film shows life on Austrian farms in an unvarnished and unemotional way. As diverse as the farmers shown are, from organic farmers to conventional agricultural engineers, their message is unanimous: things cannot go on like this. Something is wrong. It shows how economic policy and society are increasingly capitulating to industry. The pictures are not rosy, but there are moments of hope.

Three couples in Vienna have children at around the same time. They're all in their mid-30s, successful, cool and live in a popular part of town. As idealistic as they are materialistic, they grow tomatoes on the balcony, drink locally roasted coffee and expensive cocktails and would never buy an electronic device sporting a half-eaten apple. And they're absolutely certain that you can have children without becoming bourgeois. But the reality tells a different story. Between career and kindergarten, Apple and alternative lifestyles, the satire plays cleverly with hipster clichés and mercilessly points up the gap between the old self-image and the new bourgeoisie.
