Petr studies law in Prague, Jakub studies philosophy there. They are the best of friends until their holiday trip to Slovakia is crossed by a Romani young man named Imro. Imro is in love with Eržika, who is guilty of breaking an ancient tradition by breaking her vow of loyalty. The vow is the law. In a fit of jealousy, Imro kills his beloved. Two punishments await him. One from the majority "white" society, the other from his own Roma community. Petr and Jakub watch Imro's tragic fate from close proximity and their views on the matter of justice and punishment begin to diverge diametrically. The academic controversy eventually escalates into a fundamental conflict of life attitudes that almost destroys their friendship. Whose side is the truth on?

Two brothers - foundlings - are in the service of a rich landlord who has two beautiful daughters. While the younger is not only beautiful but also good, the older is pride and envy itself. So when the brothers encounter a she-wolf while shepherding and she gives them miraculous gifts, the older sister does everything she can to rob them of them and the happiness they can bring. Little does she know that the she-wolf is an enchanted princess who will not only marry one of the brothers, but also justly punish her wickedness.
