In the northern part of Bulgaria, amidst the Balkans, a group of old women await the rain. The rain will come in the form of a young girl dressed in white. And the women will care for her, as they care for the memory of youth, which always returns from the past, until the world awakens. A visual poem that will protect us from the cold of winter.
