Iva is a young man who has to marry a lame but rich girl Roza, who wants children. The cow that was the breadwinner of the family perished due to Iva's negligence, Iva does not want to have anything to do with his legal wife repeating that he is "the master of his body". In a moment of rage, Iva hits Rosa, and she replies that she knows at least from his hand that she is his wife.—branko.pervan1
