In a small traditional Georgian village, Etero, the owner of a housekeeping shop, is a forty-eight-year-old spinster. She cherishes her freedom, as much as her cakes, and is preparing for a peaceful and comfortable retirement away from gossip. But a fiery affair with her delivery man could derail all her plans.

In Georgia, in the middle of a desert, on the hottest day of summer two water-melon sellers cross paths.

Injured and starving, Crow falls in the yard of the Church. He tries to get food in the Church, but believers kick the devil's bird out of God's house. The crow ends up on the shoulder of the scarecrow, but after the storm, the scarecrow is stripped from its clothes and believers discover the holy cross instead of it, and now the poor bird is kicked out from his new safe place as well...

Continuously working on her sewing machine, a woman seems to light up the night in the neighbourhood. A tribute of the director to his grandmother, the film is a tender everyday chronicle of the frequent power outages during Georgia’s first independent years, as well as of the endurance and imagination of the people, always ready to celebrate every time the power supply is temporarily restored.
