Doruntina’s besa

Synopsis
Constantin’s Besa (Albanian: Besa e Kostandinit), is an Albanian ballad and legend. Doruntine is the only daughter in a family with 7 children, including herself. When Doruntine is asked in marriage by a foreign prince, everyone in the family disagrees to let her go so far away. Only Constantin, the youngest of Doruntine’s twelve brothers, promises his mother that he’ll bring Doruntine back to see the mother as soon as the mother wants to. Eventually, the mother agrees to the marriage because of Constantin’s promise.
