==Plot==<br />
Each autumn, a white caravan travels from Georgia to the Caspian lowlands, herding sheep across the vast steppe. Among the shepherds is Gela, the son of the oldest shepherd, Martia Akhlouri. On the shores of the Caspian Sea, Gela meets Maria, a fisherman, and the two fall in love, dreaming of future reunions.<br />
<br />
Maria imagines a life where she and Gela live in her late father's house, raise children, and find happiness as a family. However, Gela dreams of a peaceful urban life, weary of the constant wandering. His vision of a settled city life remains steadfast, and not even Maria can take that dream away from him.<br />
