A mystical journey where ancient pagan gods, shamanic rituals, and the stark realities of life intertwine. The story follows a Lithuanian woman, her spirit as resilient as a plum tree, as she navigates a path of trials reminiscent of Golgotha. She must confront the deceptive allure of Brahmanic salads and the murky depths of a swamp, all while the thunderous chariots of Perkūnas and Jupiter loom, threatening to engulf her in a primal, fiery ritual.
