Plot
Angel is eager to leave Bulgaria even at the cost of a crime. He is to transport some drugs to Western Europe and never come back. Instead, he finds himself in the company of a group of hermits from the Balkan civilisation, who have lived in the mountain for 10 years - a Bulgarian, a Serb, a Macedonian, a Pomak, a Gypsy and a Russian woman.
The lack of harmony is caused by many reasons - almost as many as the good intentions that paving the way to it. The mix of egocentrism, internal chaos, hot temper and the inability to think twice before acting leads to a tragic mistake. Typically of these lands, it is the most innocent among them all that suffers the most.
Defined as a tragicomic eastern, this film, like real life, will not present extremely negative or positive characters. But at the end, it turns out there is one entirely positive personage – Hombre!
