520    A young and brave Bulgarian highlander Banko, a professional kidnapper has been given the job to bring a beautiful girl to be married to a cowardly and unassuming man. The film traces the vicissitudes of Banko and the attempts of Elitza, the abducted girl, to escape from his team and future husband. She reveals a daring character as she puts up a stiff resistance to the kidnappers. The perspective of becoming a wife to a weak-willed, stupid groom also appalls her. Elitza pleads to be set free, climbs a tree then threatens to jump into a gorge. At first Banko, who has become used to the submissiveness of his victims is taken aback by her reaction, which runs counter to the established norms of a patriarchal code of conduct. Ultimately Banko and Elitza fall in love. This leads to the most dramatic and tragic events in their lives. His confusion evolves into a conflict between the call of duty and his emerging love for Elitza. To Banko this love, which seems to be reciprocated by his victim, is tantamount to the breaking of his word of honor. He runs the gauntlet of desire, suffering and doubt, and rethinks his profession. This is a film about the dawning of understanding in an unencumbered primitive mind. It is a turning point in the development of Eduard Zakhariev who from his cynical and socially critical films proceeds to examine the role of love as a motive force of man's striving for freedom.
