An innocent girl in a village is bullied by her family and villagers for her poor behavior, and she is called Chnchik that means stupid instead of her real name. Her mistakes become a neighbor′s laughter, and her parents, who are not happy with this situation, are ashamed of her as well. However, she does not lose her dignity, and works alone to herd goats in the mountains far from the village. One day, she encounters an unfamiliar soldier who was isolated while he is training. They feel small compassion with each other and fall in love. However, a short, dreamlike moment of love on a midsummer day brings a permanent change to her life.
