Every summer, three brothers spend several months in the Macedonian mountains tending their family's flock. The older brothers, Zekir and Zarif, herd the sheep in the high pastures, while the youngest, Zani, looks after the cows in a hut at a lower altitude. At an altitude of 2,400 meters, far from any community, the three live a free but precarious life of hard work and innocent joy. Their closest companions? Their sheepdogs, who protect them from danger and boredom. The youngest brother finds this lifestyle exciting, while the two older brothers begin to dream of a different future.
