A rebellious Kosovar midwife fights for her freedom, against century-old Albanian traditions. But as she grows older, she realises that what she longs for most, is her family’s love and appreciation. Her quest is set against the background of a transforming society where the role of these old customs, written up in the ‘Kanun’, is changing and people search for their own position in this new reality.
