Synopsis: The 7th century is the time of the Great Migration of the Peoples. Under the pressure of the invaders the proto-Bulgarian tribes of Khan Kubrat are forced to split in four parts in the hope that one would survive. For twenty long years Kubrat's youngest son Khan Asparoukh led his people across many foreign lands to find eventually a new homeland on the Balkan Peninsula and this time forever. The story is told by Byzantine Velisarius, a hostage with the Bulgarian who witnesses the whole of their difficult march. He sees the suffering of the people whom he already feels close to his heart and the personal drama of their Khan Asparoukh. In 681, in alliance with the local Slav tribes, the proto-Bulgarian deal a decisive blow on numerous Byzantine army, thus 13 centuries ago the foundations of the Bulgarian state and nation were laid down.

Ernike couldn't stand your lack

of love! That killed her!

She was doomed because you

falsely swore in her life!

You knew you were lying! And Pagane

wasn't called for by Tangra!

You killed her!

Come to your senses!

You lost a wife,

I lost my only daughter!

You killed not only both my wives,

but also my two children!

Because... Pagane

was also in labour!

That's a curse! Tangra shows me

you can't create anything!

Neither children, nor state!

Don't you see how graves

appear every night?

When you spread the bones of the Bulgars

from the river Tanais to the end of the world,

you'll remain wandering alone,

a lonely horseman, with no tribe!

No land, no children!

You're brave, because you know

the khan can't judge the first kolober!

But I can always prove you ordered

the assassination of Belisarius!

And I can condemn you as a murderer!

I decree!

If anything happens to Belisarius,

you'll answer before the law!

It would be good, if you

talk with my mother soon.

You found me in a moment

of weakness, daughter!

I give her to you!

I'll never forget the hand

I bent down to kiss!

The hand of a woman who gave birth,

nursed, built and fondled,

buried and fought!

Her whole life had left its marks

on the unsightly, almost scary hand!

It seemed to me that such a hand,

from times immemorial,

would've created the Universe!

Ie's mother didn't go with us

to the south with the spring.

She, like many others who

were too weak

to reach our next camp,

would remain here.

A great farewell weighed

over the deserted settlement.

Yuvigi!

This morning this one tried

to steal a sheep from me.

There were three of them, white ones,

but the others ran away.

Let me punish him by our law!

Who are you from?

- I'm Kostur! From the Dobrovichi!

Who's your master?

- I have no master!

What do you mean?

Who owns these lands?

The Dobrovichi!

- Untie him and go!

I want to speak with your people!

All right!

- When will you bring them?

We'll find you.

- Go on your way!

Yuvigi, you didn't punish

a captured thief!

The simplest thing is

to spill blood.

Our ranks have much more

Slavic land to pass through.

If the Slavic sea rises, will our

law against the thieves save us?

Our attitude towards the Slavs

should be different!

We have many enemies,

we're in need of allies!

Your late father

taught us otherwise!

The law is above everyone

and everything!

The law is to help,

not to hinder!

I am Radil, of the Dobrovichi!

Our boy told us

you wanted to speak.

Me and my people are passing

through these lands.

Why do you

treat us with enmity?

You steal from us, yet

we've done you no harm!

It's not true!
