Synopsis:
Ivan’s best friend, Kamen, is dying in an American hospital. Since he’s denied a visa to the USA and can’t stay by his side in his last moments, he decides to set off for the Bulgarian countryside, taking the camera Kamen has given him. After some time, he writes him a very special letter, talking about all about the places and characters he meets on his way, witnesses to a time which is bound to be forgotten.
