When the Persimmons Grew plot

In a remote village in Azerbaijan, a woman runs her one-man household. She feeds her animals, works in the garden, cleans and washes by hand. She is almost always alone as the days go by. Then her adult son, after an absence of eight years, steps over the threshold of the parental home. At first, mother and son revert to their old familiar ways of interacting. But then the conversations start.
