The background to the story of “No Matter What“ is a colourful little village of Oštrovac just outside the boundaries of a national park. Its central characters are a national park ranger Damir (Momčilo Otašević) and Dr Katarina (Mirna Medaković) a medical doctor who comes to live in Oštrovac on account of her grandfather's estate.

For most of his life, Katarina's grandfather Đuro (Mate Gulin) had lived alone in this village. In a will he made before his death, he left one million euros to his grandchildren Katarina, Tomislav (Miran Kurspahić) and Krešo (Janko Popović Volarić) on one condition, that for one full year they live in his shabby little cottage in Oštrovac. If they fail, the money would go to the people of the village.

His money could save the village that faces a pitiable future with all the young people leaving because the village has nothing to offer, and initially the villagers will do their best to make Đuro's grandchildren leave so that they could get the million.
