One day, she decides to face her fear and go looking for it. Mariam discovers that Abastumani is a century-old mansion where people who are sick with tuberculosis and have been marginalized by society reside. During the morning, Abastumani looks like an old hospital where the sick queue up to ask for medicine from the old Soviet doctors who attend them. During the afternoon, Abastumani looks like a social centre where the sick play under the smoke of their cigarettes. At night, Abastumani witnesses the violence caused by alcohol and drugs. Everything changes when a Georgian oligarch discovers Abastumani and buys the building. Invisible natural forces emerge to offer a magical resistance to this unyielding fate.
