By the early 1930s, the Great Depression has swept across the United States. People are starving, though some do manage to survive. Among them are Ray Lіnn Cobb and her husband Warren, who keep a modest farm producing pine resin. But one day, Warren—a kind man, though far too careless—becomes a victim of his own negligence, and Ray Lіnn’s cozy world tragically collapses. To survive, she makes a desperate move: disguising herself as a man, she goes to the work camp of the Lасточкiне Гнездо, hoping to get hired as a laborer in a turpentine production facility. Will she be able to keep her anonymity in this cruel male world?
