The boy was sent to the institution for children in an attempt to socialize him and got the Muslim name – Haris. Contrary to most predictions, he was developing and making friends quickly. When the war in BiH broke out in 1992, Haris got the letter from local Bosnian authorities which asked for his immediate return. Upon returning to BiH, he had nowhere to go. While wandering aimlessly, he came across a group of soldiers that gave him a gun and took him with them.

Κάθε άνοιξη το ποτάμι Ένγκουρι φέρνει εύφορο χώμα από τον Καύκασο μέχρι τις πεδιάδες της Αμπχαζίας, δημιουργώντας μικροσκοπικά νησιά, καταφύγια για την άγρια ζωή, αλλά μερικές φορές και για τον άνθρωπο. Η ιστορία μας ξεκινά όταν ένας γέρος αγρότης, από την Αμπχαζία, φτάνει σε ένα από τα μικρά αυτά νησιά. Χτίζει μια καλύβα για τον ίδιο και την έφηβη εγγονή του, οργώνει τη γη και μαζί σπέρνουν καλαμπόκι. Καθώς η εγγονή του σταδιακά γίνεται γυναίκα, και το καλαμπόκι ωριμάζει, ο γέρος έρχεται αντιμέτωπος με τον αναπόφευκτο κύκλο της ζωής.
