Synopsis:
Depicting the inability of an individual to escape the horrors of war, this film tells the story of the married Rosenberg couple. They are apolitical musicians who upon the outbreak of a civil war move to a remote island. There they continue playing their instruments and manage to survive thanks to the sale of wild berries and their neighbors’ help. After a plane full of soldiers crashes on the island, they are finally forced to face the war and its consequences.
