Synopsis
Twenty-some Koli studies at Tirana university. When he hears of his father's demise, he returns to his native mountain village to attend the funeral. During a walk through the countryside, someone takes a shot at him. Soon after, the young man discovers that he is part of a blood feud sparked by his grandfather sixty years earlier. He goes to meet the family to whom he owes his life, and in doing so, he makes the acquaintance of the murderer whom fate has determined will take it. Even after his return to urban Tirana, Koli finds he cannot extricate himself from this world of ancient, inexorable rituals.
