Contents Summary
The characters of the film live in a devastated region brought to a standstill by war and economic troubles. In such close proximity to one another, loving another person can be challenging. It is with an often black humor that the characters featured in this film find ways, within their community, to affirm that they truly exist. A shaman goes into trance in front of the television, sex-starved hermit dreams of marriage, a ewe is sacrificed and eaten, an old woman prevents her daughter-in-law from learning to read, a shepherdess lives at the top of the mountain and would like to return to the valley, the military watch over the village, a man who came from Europe goes off to request the hand in marriage of a young girl living with her mother. It is through these situations that one can discover the reality of families doing what they can to find a way of living together, to take the best – or the worst – from each moment.
