Synopsis
Déni is the new owner of a small plot of land in a remote valley in Georgia, on the border with Chechnya, from which he has been exiled since childhood. He arrives there and plans to build a house that stands in stark contrast to local customs. A fantasy that rekindles his memories and those of his uprooted clan, who dream of nothing more than marrying him off!
