The two farmsteads of the Robber's Hill (Vargamäe) - Mäe and Oru - have been in conflict with each other since the days of youth of their old masters - Andres and Pearu. Although both farmsteads are now in the hands of younger generation, their mutual resentment has not disappeared. The farmstead of Mäe is run by Andres's daughter Maret and his son-in-law Sass. The farmstead of Oru is run by Pearu's son Karla and his wife Iida. Both dislike each other mainly because this has been the way of the Robber's Hill. The old masters can not make peace with each other even in their last days. Conflict is instigated by the fact that Oru has no suitable heir because Karla's son Eedi is mentally incapable. The old masters of the Robber's Hill are convinced that it is the farmstead that must last even if man dies. Next to the old there is the youth of the Robber's Hill - the children of Mäe and Oru, struggling with work, life and love, just like in old days. Love is another reason for conflict between the two farmsteads because Maret's daughter Elli and Karla's daughter Juuli fell in love with the same guy, young Ott who works as a helping hand in Mäe. But love is also the reason for different type of conflict. Against expectations, Andres's son Indrek returns from the city to work hard in the marshes and fields of the Robber's Hill, to complete his so-called voluntary toil as a redemption in his failed life. All struggle and toil in the Robber's Hill, be it love, work or life. One year follows another. People come, change and go but the Robber's Hill remains unchanged.

- The world is in every person. Microcosms have no boundaries. They are exactly as big as the imagination of their owner. Juri Lotman's imagination was clearly very big. The entire universe fit into it - a large portion of Russian literature, the semiosphere the size of the galaxy, and detailed knowledge of wartime lines of communication. As a cosmopolitan, he traveled about various orbits, gathering and recording different kinds of information. The time came when ideas that came about as the result of processing of information started to look for a means of expression. Some of them found their way out through picture drawings, others by way of written words. In Lotman's world, Hitler and Stalin meet, and images of St. Petersburg and Tartu intertwine. The round table of semioticians as Eco, Uspenski, Toporov, Jegorov, Ivanov, Pjatigorski and others is given the floor, the battlefield alternates with domestic idyll, signs alternate with meanings. Shrove buns, herring and a moustache are also undoubtedly an inseparable part of Lotman's inner and outer cosmos. There are as many worlds as there are people. But there is only one Lotman's World.
