XIII century. The story follows Ivaylo, discontented Bulgarian, who rises against at first the Mongols, who are attacking the Bulgarian lands; and later the inadequate Bulgarian tsar. He manages to defeat both of them and is crowned as the new tsar.

In the last 40 days a fishing boat crew has caught only one little fish. They send a wire to the port that they got 30 kilograms of anchovy. Through the reports of the administration, the catch is transformed into 300 kilograms of mackerel, after that into tons of bonito, then a small dolphin, a big dolphin and finally into a whale. The film was shot in 1967 and after many edits by the communist censorship premiered on limited screens in 1970.
