In Kyrgyz courting tradition, men give women a pair of earrings as a token of their love. In this film there is a meeting between an adolescent boy and girl and their mothers, who are friends. The director uses metaphors from national poetry to reflect on the meeting instead of words. Bright colours abound, especially red. Screened before The Day I Disappeared.
