Tough guy Miron asks taciturn writer Aist to accompany him on a long journey to dispose of his dead wife's remains according to the rituals of the Merya people, an ancient tribe from picturesque West-Central Russia. As the two friends traverse the evocatively bleak landscape with her body and a pair of caged birds, Miron fills the hours relating the most intimate details of his marriage
