Synopsis
The central story revolves around the handsome Janko Gotovac and beautiful Luce Akrap. He is the best man, and she is the maid of honor at the wedding of their mutual friends. After a passionate night in Zagreb, they part ways, thinking they are not meant to be together. What they don’t know is that life will soon bring them together again, through warring family ties in a small village from which they cannot escape.Janko’s father, Aljoša Gotovac, after a financial collapse and accusations from custody, is unexpectedly saved by his godfather Stipan Macan and brought back to his former hometown of Zaglave with his wife Vesna, son Janko, and daughter Lara. The life of Gotovac family is turned upside down. They’ve come from Zagreb to a small village where a deep division exists over the construction of a road that could bring prosperity and money to an otherwise poor region. The sides in the village are split: Stipan Macan and his son Vinko are on one side, and the others, led by the cunning Zvone Akrap, are on the other. The arrival of the Gotovac family stirs up even more trouble.
While Stipan has kept the secret his whole life that Aljoša is actually his biological son, the truth eventually comes to light. It will be up to brothers and rivals, Vinko and Aljoša, to either unite and save the village from what turns out to be Akrap’s fraud, or further wage war over Stipan’s inheritance and ultimately lose everything. Will the love between Janko and Luce be stronger than the family feud, and can they reconcile the warring sides?
Throughout the later seasons, new twists will emerge that change the course and plot of the series.
