In the late 1920s, Bayan Tuvden's son, Galzagd, marries a woman, but when he fails to produce a child, Galzagd's mother expels him from the house. Years pass, and the woman, who was expelled, marries another man and has a son. This is how the curse of three generations begins, as it spreads through the village and reaches the ears of Galzagd.
