An adventurous drama about horse smuggling in the area of the borders between Poland and Slovakia shortly after the 2nd World War. Two strong individualities face each other - the horse smugglers´ leader Orban and the frontier-guard commander-in-chief Halva. They both act according to their own concern an that results in the meaningless death of five people. (official distributor synopsis)
