Based on Ion Druță's opera "Casa Mare" (The Big House).

A story of a grey man who is always sighing. Living in a smog-covered grey city, he keeps on sighing until he dries out and becomes nothing but skin and bones. But even in the darkest corners of the soul, there is light and colour.

Two friends make a bet that Valera won’t milk Ana’s goat. In the night they come drunk and break into Ana’s yard. Ana tries to stop them and becomes their victim.
