We have a prodigal son returning to his village after seven years to find his father's funeral is imminent. He arrives with a stab wound from which he recovers in time to carry his father's coffin and dig the grave. Even today that might take a couple of weeks - the poor dead man would have been rotting by then.
Dialogue is painful at times (improvised) and the story so slow very little had emerged by end of episode one.
Any quality lies in the filming and the music - not enough to make up for the direction choices.
Clogs may be authentic but the noise from them detracted from what might have enhanced the story.
