Probably, half of his native village was married off by Grandfather Stepan, because he was always eager to do good for others. Even a serious illness couldn’t stop him from doing so. After returning from the hospital to his native village, he once again finds himself in the midst of the complex relationships of the people around him. And once again, he has to play the role of matchmaker. But this time, all of Grandfather Stepan’s energy is directed at helping… a goose and a gander to be together.
