Contents/Summary
- Summary
- In the surrounding mountains of the Black Sea coast, some traditions such as the "yayla" have remained unchanged for centuries: villagers of those mountains go high in the highlands during summer to milk cows and make some butter and cheese for winter. This film tells the story of the women from these villagtes who carry on their shoulders the weight of a life of seasonal migration, in a constant battle against a hostile natural environment
