“Inspired by the story "Through the Plague" by Yordan Yovkov, the film takes us to the beginning of the 19th century, when the plague roamed the Bulgarian lands.”
At the beginning of the 19th century, the plague swept through the Bulgarian lands. Chorbaji Yurdan and his son Yono return from Hadzhilak and find the villagers starving and scared. The Black Plague brings to the fore the greatest human fears and atavistic survival instincts.
