About the film

Even angels are inclined to sin, and the Lord throws the wicked ones out to the Earth. One of them, turning into an imp Pinčiukas, falls down from Heaven straight into the pond of the miller Baltaragis. The imp promises Baltaragis to make his windmill run non-stop even without any wind, but on one condition—only if the miller gives the imp something he does not yet have. Baltaragis finds it easy to promise to give away something he doesn’t even have yet, but when his daughter Jurga is born, Pinčiukas wastes no time in reminding him of their deal.

The film is based on the novel ‘Baltaragio malūnas’ (‘The windmill of Baltaragis’) by Kazys Boruta.
