TOWER OF STRENGTH

In his local area, Nuredin Doka is respected as a hero and the representative of his family clan, who respects the Code but is not immune to making a judgement in favour of human life. That is how he let go of the feud with the rival Gjonaj clan and adopted their son instead of killing him. During the war, Nuredin opts to sit it out, minding his own business and surviving by hunting with his son Mehmet, since he does not want to choose sides between the cowardly Nazi supporters and the atheistic communist partisans. But although he is keeping out of trouble, trouble finds him in the form of a boy called Vuk, who has escaped the massacre in his village and found refuge in Nuredin’s house.
