A man sees a woman and falls in Iove. To win her heart, he embarks upon a courtship involving fire-lit tribal dances, a perilous deer hunt and demonstrations of his virility. The only thing that unlocks her heart, however, is a flower, the “Camunian rose”, which he plucks from the rock and gives to her as a sign of his love. This romantic, poetic and entertaining story is set in the Iron Age against a backdrop of rock, in a light-hearted blend of animation and film. At the end, the same story is told in modern times.
