Snow does not fall to cover the hill, but for every beast to leave it’s trail. Eastern Bosnia, 1997. Six women, a grandfather, four girls and a young boy live in war ravaged and isolated village of Slavno. Their families and friends had been killed and their bodies had never been found. The first snow brings full isolation and risk for life in the village. Villagers face a dilemma: should they accept the offer that could save their lives, but destroy their souls. A sudden storm traps two businessmen in Slavno, forcing them to face a problem bigger than anything they expected ‚ the truth!
