THE BIRCH GROVE is the story of two brothers who reunite after not seeing each other for many years. The younger brother, Stas, comes to visit his brother after spending time in a sanitorium in Switzerland. He has come home to die. His older brother is a forester who is recently widowed and consumed by work. As the story unfolds we witness the connection that both brother’s have to love and death and how they are transformed by their last meeting.
