Events in the film take place in 19 century when adyghean people increasingly realised the need for combining their forces. This theme is reflected in conflict of Dzhambot, wise tutor of young adyghean nobles, and prince Yedidzh, who upholds the idea of independent specific princedoms. Film recreates the atmosphere of adyghean life. Scenario is based on first adyghean books, etnographical drawings and tales of old.
