In a village in Kyrgyzstan, there is a stone that looks like a woman. According to local beliefs, a young woman, having quarreled with her husband and father-in-law, runs away from home. The father-in-law put a curse on the woman. The fleeing woman supposedly turns to stone.
In a village in Kyrgyzstan, according to local beliefs, if a young woman does not obey her father-in-law, she is said to be turned into stone. One day, Patia hears the news of her husband's remarriage and receives a sudden proposal from her father-in-law. Now she stands at a crossroads of choice. The film quietly describes the painful reality of women who face a tragic fate due to the patriarchal customs that remain in the 21st century. Where did Patia disappear? [KIM Jung-eun ]
