Ketevan, a village doctor, is already sending her second son away in the world war. Only the youngest child, Mamuka, remains as the family's hope. Ketevan does not lack care for the sick, lives in hope, and waits for his children to return home. But the harsh reality of the war demands a sacrifice from her again - Ketevani sends his third son to the war as well.
