A bleak, intimate portrait of a young woman trapped by marriage and village tradition in 19th-century Poland, where love and independence collide with social constraint and sexual coercion.
Peasant girl Jagna is forced to marry the much older, wealthy farmer Boryna, despite her love for his son Antek. With time, Jagna becomes the object of envy and disdain with the villagers and she must fight to preserve her independence.
