Synopsis: Jagna, a young woman, is determined to forge her own path within the confines of a late 19th century Polish village. A hotbed of gossip and on-going feuds, the rich and poor of the village are held together by pride in their land, adherence to colourful traditions, and deep-rooted patriarchy. When Jagna finds herself caught between the conflicting desires of the village’s richest farmer, his eldest son, and other leading men around her, her resistance puts her on a tragic collision course with the community.
