Her father Jozo comes up with the idea of telling everybody that Mira is a widow. He plans to find her a new husband as soon as possible. With a little help from a matchmaker, several potential suitors visit their house. Her parents dislike the war veteran Caco because he is slightly deranged, as well as their neighbor Begic because he is Muslim. The best candidate is Mate, who clears mines on nearby fields. When Mira gives birth, a new problem arises - the babys father was Asian! Kate and Jozo have a hard time dealing with the mockery of their neighbors. Soon, Mira decides to take the child with her and leave her parents home. She comes back after a few years to visit her dying father.
