The corporation plans to bottle the water and sell it worldwide. When farmer Bernhard, whose leased land is to be used for the new well, takes a stand, turmoil breaks out in the sleepy community.

When Martin realizes that he has been deceived and wants to undo his mistake, he finds that he has set a process in motion that he can no longer stop on his own.
