Synopsis: The incredible life and spiritual evolution of the shepherd Tanas are seen against the background of the revolutionary struggle in turn-of-century Macedonia. In the beginning the inner world of the protagonist is governed solely by the laws of nature and the age-old patriarchal order. All of a sudden he enlists in a revolutionary band and lives through the exaltation accompanying the outbreak of the Uprising of St Elijah's Day (1903) and the tragedy of its defeat. His mind undergoes a complex metamorphosis - from the darkness of primitive existence to a historically - conscious way of thinking. Along with the character of Tanas the film features a host of mythological creatures organically integrated into fabric of the story.
