"A small ancient village, with few houses and a little church. Rusina is not yet married. She goes to the mass every Sunday, with her most beautiful dress, done with the cloth of her mother’s wedding dress. During the mass she meets Flipot, looking upon her with respect and embarrassment. Rosina pretends she doesn’t notice Flipot and she blushes, then she runs at home to help her grandmother celebrating Sunday with a rich lunch, wine and dreams."
