Andrei Naghit

A difficult historical period in the life of the Moldovan people, who fought in the 1930s against the yoke of royal Romania and for reunification with the Soviet Union.

Grishka Hamuraru, the grandson of the underground fighter Samson Hamuraru, who is still unjustly considered a traitor in the Moldovan village of Vioreni for having led a partisan group to ruin during the war, decides to conduct his own investigation and restore his grandfather's good name.

For a long time, the chairman of the collective farm, Andrei Spirya, has been dreaming of moving the village, which lies in a lowland and is often flooded by floods, to the mountain. Some of the collective farmers are against resettlement. Suddenly, a severe flood occurred, which caused a lot of destruction.
