SYNOPSIS
In the Carpathian Mountains of western Ukraine, on the eve of a traditional celebration, Pamfir returns to his family after months of working abroad in Poland. His love for his family is so unconditional, that when his only child starts a fire in the prayer house, he has no other choice but to reconnect with his troubled past to repair his son’s error.
A family drama set against a backdrop of a criminal thriller; a story about devotion, loyalty, love, and redemption.
