Full plot (contains spoilers)
Gaby is a 37-year-old single mother who looks after her six-year-old son, Kuif, and her mother, Mientje.

Things get even harder when a hot-air balloon landing crushes the chicken coop, chickens and all. The balloonist turns out to be Arnaud, a Flemish man who wants to start a hot-air ballooning business next to the farm. Although the two clash when they first meet, they grow closer.
