The film shows the hard work of the Brkini people, customs and life in the period between the First and the Second World War. The central part of the action is the story of a young couple conditioned by social and property stratification. A typical social drama, based on a true story, has a happy ending, but the events testify to the ossified tradition of subordinate and superior.
