The Birds of Our Youth

On the edge of a Moldovan village lives a wise old and infinitely lonely Aunt Ruta. She is always eager to help her fellow villagers, to cheer them up, to give them useful advice. It was not easy for her to forgive a long-standing offense, but she finds the strength to forget it and visits her dying relative to ease the last hours of his life.
