A big she-bear

In a Village isolated in a mountainous location in Georgia, the story of a local community unfolds in three dimensions: contemporary, historical and mythological, mixing Christian and pagan beliefs.
When a she-bear bursts into the lives of the villagers, they wonder if it has connections with a distant relative killed, a mystery protected by a monk living in a sacred oak tree. Personal stories re-emerge and intertwine, against this backdrop of magical forces, of great inspiration as a warning for the preservation of nature and its elements.
