In the middle of the Second World War, with Bulgaria torn by civil strife, Kara and Yara, twin daughters of a wealthy Sofia family, run away to join the partisans. In the unit of Medved, a harsh commander schooled by Soviet military intelligence, the beautiful twins unsettle the fighters, and within hours the unit is ambushed. The survivors hide in the mysterious Dadan Forest, and a tale of battles, betrayal and absurd, tragicomic survival begins.
