Major Grom: Plague Doctor
Cesku's life changes forever when communism takes power in post-war Albania, persecuting and killing the people he loves. Bound by a teacher's bequest, he must carry out a mandate that becomes his only light of hope in a hopeless land. In the turbulent years after World War II, Cesku, a young highlander, grows up under the shadow of persecution as communism seizes Albania. His mentor, Father Pali, once rescued him and entrusted him with a sacred mission: to cast the symbolic cane into the river. At the Franciscan College of Shkodra, Cesku meets Sara, an orphan whose fate tragically intertwines with his own. When the regime imprisons him and executes Sara, Cesku discovers that Father Pali's request was not merely an old promise, but a legacy carrying the weight of faith, resistance, and survival. Through suffering and loss, Cesku realizes that the act of fulfilling the bequest may be the only path left to hope and meaning in a land stripped of both.
