Three cows – Joy, Crumb and Sweetie – live in the forest; Sweetie is Joy’s granddaughter, and no one had any notion she was about to arrive until the moment Crumb gave birth to her right there in the field. Three women take care of three cows, and – three cows take care of three women. This matriarchal company of the three veterinarians and their cows is known as the Fabulous Cow Ladies. The film is a tender and calm observation of nature that beckons us to ponder the cycle of life and the importance of community.

Back in the day in Latvia there was hardly a homestead without a cow, but with the changing rhythm of life and economic situation, it would now be a rarity as cows are most often kept on large farms. This tendency is even more pronounced in Finland, where the average size of a herd of cows is several times larger than in Latvia. However, cows have and will have a special place in our lives. Thanks to enthusiasts, Latvia is still home to special local breed Latvian Brown and Latvian Blue cattle.
