Every year, thousands of East European laborers travel to Germany to help with the harvest. For three months of the year they set up their lives far away from their own homes. "Under one sky" (Pod Niebem) explores this tension and the laborers' resulting emotions with a sense of poetry. In the face of the foreign, a community that supports each other is crafted. Many workers meet for the first time on the fields. Often the only thing they have in common is the distance between them and the homes they've left behind. Yet it seems to be precisely this that binds the laborers together. So much so that it hurts to go back home.
