This film blends scenes from an ethnographic theatre performance called The Wedding of Kupiškis Dwellers, which features customs, songs and laments of youth as remembered by elderly people together with wedding songs and customs from the time when Verba was shooting the film. We hear an older generation sharing their thoughts about marriage and their life at the time, along with the answers of today’s youth.
