Zaza Urushadze writes and directs this Estonian-Georgian drama starring Lembit Ulfsak and Elmo Nüganen. Set during the 1992 war in Abkhazia, Georgia, the film follows a group of Estonian farmers who have settled on Abkhazian land to farm their popular crop of tangerines. As the war breaks out, most of them flee and head back to Estonia, but two determined farmers, Ivo and Margus (Ulfsak and Nüganen), decide to stay to harvest the rest of their crop. When the war creeps across their land, however, they are forced to take in wounded soldiers, despite the fact that they are fighting for the other side. Can political enemies live under the same roof without killing each other?
