As soon as Mirta Saknīte, an elderly country woman, wins a car in a lottery, relatives, who had never taken any interest in the elderly woman before, flock to her homestead. Until then the large Giluči family were Mirta’s only helpers. Her nephew Ēriks with his wife and son and her ex-daughter-in-law Olita with her second husband and daughter would love to get their hands on the car. Everyone tries to lure Auntie Mirta on their side but shortly before her death she reconnects with her former sweetheart Alfrēds Pigals. Based on a story by Māras Svīre.
A phenomenon of Latvian film history – this domestic comedy has been recognized as the best Latvian film of all time on several occasions, and various Latvian TV channels still broadcast it on Midsummer every year. This film has also made the contemporary Latvian folklore richer with several catchy phrases and dialogues.
