Synopsis / Sinopsis

Three women live in harmony with nature. One of them is a shepherd, and she lives with the flocks high up in the mountains. The second one goes out fishing into the sea (the fact that she cannot swim does not hold her back), while the third is a farmer. The film tells the story of these three women, who stand for a way of life which is still intimately connected with nature.

Trei femei care trăiesc în armonie cu natura. Prima păstoreşte turmele sus la munte, cea de-a doua iese zi de zi pe mare, la pescuit (iar faptul că nu ştie să înoate n-o împiedică şi n-o sperie), în fine, cea de-a treia administrează o fermă. Filmul spune povestea celor trei femei, amintindu-ne că mai există oameni care pîăstrează şi azi o legătură intimă cu natura.
