Synopsis

Mityo has lost everything that matters
to him: his wife, his work and his
hopes. And now he's losing the trust
of his only son, Vasko. Out of desperation,
Mityo agrees to smuggle illegal
immigrants from Syria through a steep
mountain pass into Bulgaria. One last
trip remains. Left at the mercy of the
Judgment Mountain, and in desperate
need of help from his ever more distant
son, Mityo will soon discover if he can
be forgiven for a terrible sin committed
25 years ago.
