A mountain river divides the village of Soviet Georgia and Turkey. A young border guard, Temur, notices that his daughter on the other side has fallen off a wooden bridge and into the river. Temur immediately jumps into the water and saves his daughter. Fatman is haunted by the entire village, the border guards. He now sees Soviet life with different eyes, but is forced to surrender to the Turkish authorities and return home. But Kolishvili's newly acquired friends and the days spent with them are deeply imprinted in his mind.

In the distant mountains, in a Serbian village, the occupiers are robbing the population and shooting the rebels. The villagers flee into the forest and form a partisan detachment. The detachment mines the road so that the punitive detachment cannot reach the village. But the partisans do not have Bickford's belt. The bomber faces inevitable death. Young Marko undertakes this task.
