Martin experienced in his youth what true love is, but his beloved Anna died giving birth to her first child. Martin, an already elderly man, still feels guilty about it and longs to fix everything while there is still time. He escapes from his grandparents ’shelter and begins a long journey to the small village where it all began. The people Martin meets, of course, don’t know why Martin is here, and he has to go through a number of dramatic, but at the same time exciting events, until he finally feels redeemed by his guilt.
