Synopsis
In the fall people all over Yugoslavia start distilling their home-made plum brandy, popularly known as “martyr”. According to the locals, plum brandy is the purest, fairest and most blessed beverage. Coming to this world and leaving it is toasted with brandy. You can't go anywhere without a "martyr", not even to a church or a priest. The custom of distilling plum brandy shows the habits of the village, all the weaknesses and virtues.
