The Peasants

Love Comes And Goes But Land Stays.

The tragic story of a peasant girl named Jagna forced to marry a much older, wealthy farmer Boryna, despite her love for his son Antek. With time, Jagna becomes the object of envy and hate with the villagers and she must fight to preserve her independence. Set in the Polish countryside on the cusp of the 19th and 20th centuries, the story's dramatic turns tie into the changing seasons, hard labor in the fields, and the traditional local holidays.
