The narrative unfolds with two girls, Johanna and Maija, during the Pentecost festivities, highlighting their conversations about attending dances and the underlying tensions in Johannas's life due to her family's struggles with alcohol. The arrival of drunken men at the farm escalates the events and sets a tone of impending conflict, both within the family and outside in their community.
