The theme of the film is the essence of the Ukrainian song as the cradle of the Ukrainian people, the whole nation. Its depth, the antiquity of its history. The film also tells the tragic story of the brilliant folk opera “When the Fern Blossoms“.

However, the Soviet government of the time was afraid of Ukrainian song and banned the opera, breaking the set.
