?Snow does not fall to cover the hill, but for every beast to leave its trail.? Six women, an old man, four girls and a young boy live in the war-ravaged and isolated village of Slavno. Their families and friends have been killed and their bodies have never been found. The first snow brings more isolation and threatens life in the village. Alma, a young, stubborn woman believes they can survive and find their way out of poverty by selling plum jam and other fruits and vegetables on a deserted road. Two businessmen visit Slavno and demand that the residents leave the village in exchange for money. Villagers face a dilemma: should they accept the offer that could save their lives, but destroy their souls? A sudden snow storm leaves the businessmen stranded in Slavno, forcing them to face a problem bigger than anything they expected -the truth.
