Järvide perekond on laiali pillatud Ameerikasse, Saksamaale, Inglismaale, Šveitsi ja Soome, kuid ühel imelisel augustipäeval kohtuvad Järvide perekonna 16 liiget maalilise Leigo järvede kaldal. Filmi kaudu same esireas istudes sellest elamusest osa võtta.

Three generations of a gifted family are summoned together for a onetime concert at the picturesque site of Leigo Lake. The head of the family, world-renowned Estonian conductor Neeme Järvi, has done much to propagate the music of Estonian composers and to create general goodwill towards Estonia. This film gives us front-row seats to the extended Järvi family as they rehearse and reminisce about their family history – after all, there are enough of them to form their own chamber orchestra.
