Document. On the wide mountain slope, somewhere below the wood the smoke is coming from the highlander's  house. In order to get there it is necessary to pass closed Polish-Slovakian frontier crossing and to turn deeply into the wood. In the hose live four men. By the half of the year they are doomed for each other presence. Every day they have to shepherd and milk 400 sheeps. Every next day they become closer and then they start talking seriously about… women.
