Zoja, a pragmatic doctor, is forced to confront the unexplainable after her meticulously planned life unravels. Heavily pregnant, she reveals she is in this situation because she ran away from her life in Prague, to an East Slovak village – her home. It Takes a Village is a dark and moody series set in reality and filled with female friendships, secrets, and the unsettling presence of Eastern Slovakian folklore.
Príbeh začína Zojou, v pokročilom štádiu tehotenstva, keď nahráva odkaz pre svoje nenarodené dieťa. Vysvetlí, že je v tejto situácii, lebo utiekla od svojho života v Prahe do východoslovenskej dediny – domov. Útek ale nevyriešil ani z jej problémov.

Zoja sa ocitá odkázaná na svoju sesternicu Veroniku, gen Z TikTokovú bosorku, ktorá sa učí u Márie, trochu tradičnejšej dedinskej bosorke. Tieto dve pomôžu Zoji nájsť bezpečné útočisko, kde sa môže vysporiadať s vecami, ktoré ju prenasledujú. Ako otec jej nenarodeného dieťaťa, divný chlapi v autách spiacich pred domom jej matky alebo hlasy, ktoré Zoju niekedy prenasledujú.
