Ohrid is a holy city that remains a symbol for all Macedonians. Like an Orthodox cross standing between East and West, Ohrid was a coveted target for the Ancient Greeks and Romans and more recently for the Bulgarians, Serbs and Turks. Shot at the time of the spectacular celebrations of Epiphany, the film introduces us to a people who want to believe that their young country can escape the spiral of chaos afflicting the Balkan states.
