Two boys raised in a terraced cliff village pass their days playing games, drawing water from a reservoir, and climbing to a distant spring, their routine framed by stone-built dwellings, laddered terraces, and communal ceremonies. When they glimpse a weary stranger near the spring and await the hunters' return, tensions between curiosity and caution arise. Scenes explore domestic tasks such as weaving, pottery, baking, and food storage, alongside sacred rites held in a ceremonial chamber. The narrative emphasizes close-knit social life, the ingenuity required by a cliff-side environment, and the small moments that mark youth and community.
