Plot
The film tells the story of a woman's difficult fate. For eighty years Eva spent her life in a Georgian mountain village. There she married Georgiy the shepherd, who soon died, possibly murdered. After this she married Spyridon out of compassion for his lonesome, gloomy lost soul. In her native village Eva lived through the revolution and civil war, the NEP and the collectivization.
And now Eva lives in a deserted village. Most of the villagers move to the city where living is simpler and easier and life is always seething. And even the mother of Eva's beloved grandson who has come from the city, wants to take him away with her. But the boy remains with his grandmother who believes that the village where their ancestors lived will be reborn.
