Synopsis
Drahomíra Vihanová's third feature film treats the conflict between the modern 'civilized' world and the customs and traditions of a Romany community linked to nature. Students Peter and Jacob disagree about the notion of guilt connected to a case of murder in a Romany village because they represent two differing moral approaches, as the film progresses their world views stretch to the breaking point.
