Every year Edwin Steurer spends the summer months with his cattle on the Wildmoos pastures. Every day the 74-year old breeder carries out his hard and tiring work with patience and tranquillity. His attitude is to do everything with calm and much care, as “up here there is always enough time”. On the background of silent landscapes, the passing of peaceful days and the continual dialogue with nature and animals, this film tells of the daily life of a man who has fulfilled his ambitions through his humble work.
