За събитието

A young woman must marry across nine villages to the tenth; a place far away for the old bones of her mother to visit. As the mother laments for the daughter she will lose to far off lands, a greater loss occurs - the plague comes to the village. A mythic tragedy about the illness, loss, and fate.


The plague does not take lovers, she is merciful towards love some say. Yet, sometimes she is not. 

'You are beautiful Rada, the Plague told her,

Beautiful, but stupid.

Whilst I strike your betrothed Stoyan,

Nine more shepherds will pass. And the tenth - young Stoyan.
