[1][2] The film takes place in the beginning of the 20th century in a Roma camp on the Tisza river in the Zakarpattia region on the outskirts of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Two young proud Roma, Loiko and Rada fall in love but believe that family life is a ball and chain that would fetter their independence.

Local middle-aged landowner-nobleman Antol Siladi also falls in love with Rada whom he meets during his walks through the city, but she rejects him in full view of her camp and the unfortunate amorous gentleman curses the young Roma.

However he incurs the wrath of the authorities who are preparing a raid in his encampment, and the proud and beautiful sister of Loiko – Rusalina (Nelli Volshaninova) makes resistance attempts.

Loiko's father finally gives his son over to the gendarmes, who sent his friend Talimon shortly before that to the master Balint for the purpose of debt collection.
