The bleak Hungarian Plain, 1914, an isolated village shrouded in superstition and rumours of witchcraft... 'I have made mistakes.

The daughter of a taltos, Sari has the second sight and a reputation as a witch. At the outbreak of war, the men of the village are called away to fight and a powerful bond develops between the women left behind. Sari, for the first time, finds herself with friends. However, these friendships come at a price as the women struggle to hold on to the freedom that war has brought them. Things take a sinister turn and suspicions are alerted, as one by one the villagers begin to uncover Sari's dark secret... BASED ON AN ASTONISHING TRUE STORY
