Synopsis
A lonely mountain dweller, ostracized by the locals, sells his most valued possession, a milk cow, to purchase medicine for his mother, a former prostitute dying of syphilis, only to discover her already dead upon his return. Tormented by the life of abuse he's endured, he retreats from the outside world.
