Synopsis:
Switzerland, 1955. The young orphan Max (Max Hubacher) is sent as a foster child and contracted to work for the Bösiger (Stefan Kurt) family who lives on a farm. His foster parents treat him like a workhorse while their son seizes every opportunity to humiliate him. Playing the accordion is the one thing that is entirely his. But when the new teacher stands up for Max, it only makes a bad situation much worse. The only thing preserving his will to survive is his friendship with Berteli (Lisa Brand), who was also taken on to work at the farm. Max dreams of Argentina with her: a fantasy world, where allegedly even hay forks are made of silver...
