In fact, they are the same person. When Hana's dying uncle calls her home from the city, he asks her to marry a local boy in order to run the household. Unable to accept the arranged marriage but resolved to remain independent, she must vow in accordance with Albanian tradition to live the rest of her life in chastity as a man - and becomes Mark. There is no way back for a sworn virgin.Years later Mark receives an invitation to join a cousin in Rockville, Maryland. This is Mark's chance to escape his vow and to leave Albania for modern America. But what does he know about being a woman?
